Thank you for the responses on and off-list. I found additional info at * National Lisbon Programme of the Republic of Cyprus <http://www.mcit.gov.cy/mcit/mcit.nsf/All/2EED5703C1102457C22570C70038C0EA/$file/LISBON%20STRATEGY%20TEXT%20FINAL.doc> and * the MeAC country profiles: <http://www.eaccessibility-progress.eu/country-profiles/>. Cyprus does not seem to have legislation regarding accessibility of websites (unless something changed very recently).
