ONLINE ACCESSIBLITY STANDARDS
-----------------------------

The NSW Attorney General's Department, with the assistance of the 
National Federation of Blind Citizens of Australia, have developed 
the AUS Accessibility Standards for Web Design.

These standards have been developed to ensure that the web remains
accessible to people from all works of life, specifically people with 
disabilities.

The Attorney General's Department encourages other Australian 
government websites to adopt these standards, and to display the AUS
logo indicating this.

These standards are endorsed by the Anti-Discrimination Board and the
Equal Opportunity Tribunal, and they address potential breaches of the
Disability Discrimination Act (1993).

If you are interested in finding out more information about the AUS
Accessibility Standards for Web Design, please visit the following link:
