Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations

We will endeavour to ensure any new PDFs or Word documents we publish will meet the accessibility standards and best practice utilising Adobe Acrobat Pro software.

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.
