Technical information about this website’s accessibility

is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.

Compliance status

The website is currently in beta and has not yet undergone a formal accessibility audit.

Non-accessible content

The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.

Non-compliance with the accessibility regulations

All PDF content on this site has not been produced with accessibility in mind, and thus many will likely have accessibility issues, including those published after September 2018.

Disproportionate burden

We have assessed the cost of redeveloping our PDF content and we believe that doing so now would be a disproportionate burden within the meaning of the accessibility regulations.

Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.
