Accessibility statement
The Council is committed to making this website accessible to everyone, including people who use assistive technology.
Our commitment
This website is designed to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA. This is a statutory requirement under section 47 of the Legal Education Act, 2026, and applies to every published page.
What we do
- Semantic structure with correct landmarks and headings.
- Full keyboard operation with a visible focus indicator.
- Text alternatives for images, and meaning never carried by colour alone.
- Content that reflows without loss at 320 pixels wide and at 200 per cent zoom.
- Reduced motion for visitors who ask for it in their system settings.
- Automated and manual accessibility checks before publication.
Known limitations
Some documents linked from this website are provided by other systems and may not yet meet the same standard. We are working with those services to address this. If a document is not accessible to you, please contact us and we will provide the information in another format.
