How accessible are our statistics

We are committed to making our statistical outputs accessible. Following the introduction of The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the “accessibility regulations”) we reviewed our official statistics outputs.

We now publish accessible versions of all our spreadsheets. As the latest version of many of our releases supersedes the previous one, we recommend these are used. We publish an increasing number of documents in HTML format but also still publish some official statistics documents as PDFs. Some of these may contain complex tables with merged cells, which makes it difficult for people using a screen reader to determine the correct reading order. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.3.1 (info and relationships). Where possible we will try to simplify the tables or make sure they are tagged properly for screen readers.

In line with the accessibility regulations, we are committed to providing a specific statistical publication in a different format if requested. The Equality and Human Rights Commission (in Great Britain) and the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland (in Northern Ireland) are responsible for enforcing the accessibility regulations. If you are unsatisfied with our response to any such request from DESNZ, you may contact the Equality Advisory and Support Service or the Equality Commission for Northern Ireland.
