Interesting read: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/12/20/accessibility_underclass/
"Companies and public bodies are still failing to take accessibility into account when designing their websites, despite the risk of legal action under the UK's disability discrimination laws...."
I've emailed the webmasters of UK governmental sites and public services, its the standard story.
They mostly claim that they are the "department secretary and given a copy of FrontPage and 10 days to work with"
The problem isn't with the webmasters or designers, but with the person who sets the budget, the "PHB".
Perhaps if I emailed them again, but posing as a human-rights solicitor? ;)
