Dr. Aideen Hartney:

I will make a general comment about how we are proactive as well as reactive in our work and hand over to Dr. Craddock, who will talk about some of our engagement on cycling and some things relating to the Web accessibility directive. Dr. Fitzpatrick will then speak about the European Accessibility Act, sanctions and penalties.

The NDA monitors compliance but at the same time, we engage extensively with public bodies to guide and offer suggestions as to how their performance can be improved. That is where our practical guidance and technical know how come in. We are not just naming and shaming. We are engaging to bring people along on a journey of constant quality improvement. Dr. Craddock will talk about the specifics of the web accessibility directive and the common errors there.
