A quick search at the EU site, at <http://europa.eu.int/geninfo/query_en.htm>, turned up a page that may be somewhat useful. <http://europa.eu.int/information_society/topics/citizens/accessibility/web/wai_2002/cec_com_web_wai_2001/index_en.htm>. Doesn't really seem to speak of any (proposed) law though. 'Just' promoton of the W3C's WAI. A better targeted search may turn up more though (especially if you're willing to dig through PDF and Word documents... ;)). HTH -- Sander Tekelenburg, <http://www.euronet.nl/~tekelenb/>
