Dear all,

Please see attached the draft notification for your reference. My inputs are as under:

1. If the intention is to retain the GIGW, then separation needs to happen between private establishments and government establishments.

2. Further, this amendment refers to products and services (both of them are not strictly speaking, defined term under the Act or the Rules). One may still utilise the definition of public facilities and services.

3. Lastly, we should see if we can add reference to electronic goods specifically to give effect to Section 43 / 42 which refers to everyday goods.

Regards,

Amar Jain

Dear Accessindia

The official Twitter handle of @socialpwds yesterday twitted as "On 01.08.2022, the Department notified Draft RPwD (Amendment) Rules, 2022 for inclusion of accessibility standards for ICT products and services specified by Bureau of Indian Standard's vide IS 17802(part 1) 2021 as per notification no. HQ-PUB013/1/2020-PUB-BIS(278)."

As Mission accessibility clarified there is a notified draft for RPwD Rules 2017 amendment for inclusion of BIS Indian accessibility standard. If anyone in the list can find please share.

Thanks and regards

This is the notification by which the department of consumer affairs had notified the standards. It is not the notification that the department of empowerment for persons with disabilities will have issued. Do you have a copy of the notification that this department has issued for public comments yesterday?
