Policies relating to Web Accessibility in Switzerland

Dear Madam/Sir,

While looking at the page on "Policies Relating to Web Accessibility" at 
http://www.w3.org/WAI/Policy/, I noticed that there is no reference to 
Switzerland. Here is some basic information and links that you could add 
on this page:

- “Loi sur l’égalité pour les handicapés (LHand)” and “Ordonnance sur 
l’égalité pour les personnes handicapées (OHand)”
- Valid since January 1st, 2004
- Force public services on the Internet to be accessible to all 
handicapped users
- http://www.admin.ch/ch/f/rs/151_3/index.html
- http://www.admin.ch/ch/f/rs/151_31/index.html

- Creation of the “Bureau de l’égalité pour les handicapés (BFEH)” to 
promote accessibility
- http://www.edi.admin.ch/ebgb/index.html?lang=fr

(provided links are in French. German versions of these pages are 
available as well)

Regards,

--
