Beta standards

If you have not yet investigated the government’s beta test of its e-petitions system, launched in November 2006, here is your chance. Ian Fenn has submitted the petition: ‘We the undersigned, petition the Prime Minister to ensure that any web site launched by the government complies with accessibility standards (WCAG AA at least)’.
Reader Peter Joyce tells us: ‘There’s concern that some of the government’s web sites are not compliant with basic accessibility standards’ – not least the DTI’s £200,000 web site launched in 2006.
If you agree, go to petitions.pm.gov.uk/govaccessibility.
