---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 9 Jun 2000 15:36:55 -0400 (EDT) From: Charles McCathieNevile <charles@w3.org> Subject: Australian inquiry report released forwarded. Interesting reading (and relatively concise ;-) At first glance. They point to W3C work as the obvious reference point, although they also discuss (elsewhere in the document) that standards produced by other bodies are not necessarily legislation/regulation, even when they are the standard reference. chaals ------------ For those interested, the report of HREOC's inquiry into access to ecommerce for people with disabilities and older people has now been tabled by the Attorney-General and is available via the disability rights section of the HREOC site http://www.hreoc.gov.au/disability_rights . A press release and summary of recommendations are also available - via the HREOC news and information page http://www.hreoc.gov.au/news_info/index.html . There will be a link to this material from the disability rights page shortly. Apologies to those that receive this message several times through different lists - this is one of the reasons I try to keep these messages short. Regards David Mason Director, Disability Rights policy, HREOC
