My Department’s website, , was developed to ensure compliance with accessibility guidelines and standards. While it has not been independently assessed, it is viewed as a critical communications channel for providing information to the public. As such, a project is currently underway to modernise it, improve the search functionality and make it more accessible and user friendly.
