For some reason - the layout is quite different between IE and Firefox.
The Firefox layout seems to be 1024x768 based. The IE one seems to be based on an 800 width. This impacts the IE experience by providing missing or cropped images instead of the full ones (again part of the design) and layout of the Radio, Television, Broadband is not as appealing on the IE version. And there are actually different articles being displayed below that (even after a refresh of both browsers).
I dont understand why this would need to be done like this unless there was some non-agnostic browser policy at work.
And you know people - if it's the Government they like to manufacture conspiracies.
However, as far as "standards" are concerned. All DIV/UL based - not a table in sight. This is good. But most of the links on the page dont have a "title" attribute. This would potentially score low marks for accessibility.

I've been waiting for one of the Australian members of the mailing

might as well raise the issue myself.
I personally had nothing to do with the design, code or any other
aspect of it (apart from being involved in a very broad consultative
process), but I'd be interested in a WSG perspective.
