    Recently, the Disability Rights Commission research on web accessibility found that awareness of the issue is high, but good practice is terribly low. Perhaps this indicates that commissioners want their sites to be accessible, but don't know how to go about it.

    To meet this need for guidance, the Disability Rights Commission has commissioned the British Standards Institution to produce a PAS (publicly available specification) on the subject as described above.

    The purpose of the PAS 78 is to meet the needs of website commissioners. PAS 78 is not 'rules', is not 'new web design guidelines' and is not 'the law'.

    PAS 78 is to help site commissioners (those that procure web design services via a website tender submission process, for instance) to ensure that they are able to commission accessible sites. It is intended to be a document that commissioners can understand and can discuss with web design project managers. For example, heavy reference is made to WAI guidelines, usability testing, automated checking tools, etc.
