How accessible this website is

We know some parts of this website are not fully accessible. Certain documents are in PDF format and are not accessible and have multiple accessibility issues. We are working to fix these issues.

Issues with PDFs and other documents

Some of our older PDFs and Word documents do not meet accessibility standards – for example, they may not be marked up in such a way that they are accessible to a screen reader.

We prefer to provide an accessible HTML version of the information as the primary source and replace non-HTML documents with HTML content where applicable.
