----------------------------- 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: http://www.agd.nsw.gov.au/standards.html Thank you Robert Savellis
