Web design standards

We try hard to make the website accessible to the widest possible audience.

With this in mind we have incorporated the following features where possible:

• A consistent design throughout the website using cascading style sheets.
• Information is grouped into manageable sections, based on topics, not departments.
• The site design allows you to tab through it using the TAB key on the keyboard.
• Relative font sizes are used. This means that you can change the font size in your browser.
• Tables use captions and summaries along with row and column headers.
• We use text alternatives ("alt text") for images where needed.
• We aim to clearly identify the target of each link.
• We provide advice on changing your browser accessibility options.
