We will encourage all providers of these pictures to provide accessible alternatives in future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some images do not have a text alternative, so people using a screen reader cannot access the information. This fails WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.1.1 (non-text content). Text alternatives for all images will be added from September 2021 onwards. Older images may not have text alternatives and so will be ignored by screen readers. We think this is preferable as most images are not essential for the context of the news articles. When we publish new content we\u2019ll make sure our use of images meets accessibility standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some PDFs published since 2010 are not in an accessible format, so people using a screen reader cannot access the information. When we publish new content we\u2019ll make sure an accessible version of our PDF is also made available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not always possible to change the device orientation from horizontal to vertical without making it more difficult to view the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not possible for users to change text size without some of the content overlapping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interactive Maps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Maps displayed by Google Maps \u2013 we don\u2019t control how Google Maps displays information, but where possible we provide addresses within the web page\u2019s text (via HTML). When Google makes their map output accessible, we will update our technology accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PDFs and other documents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Some of our PDFs and Word documents are essential to providing our services. For example, we have PDFs with information on how users can access our services, and forms published as Word documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Live video<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We do not plan to add captions to live video streams because live video is exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Recorded video<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We produce a number of training videos, we will be adding closed captions to these from January 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What we\u2019re doing to improve accessibility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
We are updating the code of our website so that our web pages meet WCAG 2.1AA standards by the end of 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will be training team members who input website content about accessibility requirements and how to review new web pages from September 2021 onwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will review the progress towards deadlines set out in this statement regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
