I am advised that my Department did not receive any requests for material to be made available in braille format during the period in question. I would also advise the Deputy that my Department's website (www.ahrrga.gov.ie) adheres to a minimum of conformance level Double-A with the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) and also complies with the .

The Deputy may also wish to note that the Irish language version of the website incorporates an Irish Language screen reader Abair. This software was developed by Trinity College with the support of the Department.
