The accessibility statement is deemed valid for the applicable version of the General Accessibility Improvement Framework (RGAA) on the date it was made available online. When a new version of the RGAA is released, the statement in connection with a previous version will no longer be valid. Authorities will then have 18 months in which to comply with the most recent version published.
Please note that an accessibility statement may be updated several times for the same website and the same version of the RGAA, to demonstrate efforts to make it accessible and update the level achieved.
