Enforcement procedure

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’). If you’re not happy with how we respond to your complaint, contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service (EASS).

 

Technical information about this website’s accessibility

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

This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.0 level AA due to the non-compliances and exemptions listed below.

Non-accessible content

      • There may not be sufficient colour contrast between font and background colours, especially where the text size is small, making it difficult for users with moderate visual impairment to read it. This fails WCAG 2.0 AA 1.4.3.
      • There is no caption for the silent video on the home page, making this inaccessible for those with impaired vision. This fails WCAG 2.0 AA 1.2.5.

Disproportionate burden

We are not currently claiming that any accessibility problems would be a disproportionate burden to fix.

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

The assets map is not fully accessible, as it is not possible to interact with individual map features using assistive technologies. However, maps are currently not within the scope of the regulations. However, we will continue to strive to make the site as accessible as possible.

What we are doing to improve accessibility

We will continue to address the accessibility issues highlighted. We will strive to address these issues and deliver a solution or suitable workaround.
