Access Keys

Many browsers support the use of Access Keys. The access key assignments on this web site follow the e-Government Interoperability Framework (e-GIF) recommendations:

To use the Access Keys; on a PC hold the  ALT  button, on a MAC hold the  Ctrl  button and press:

 0  = Accessibility Information

 1  = Home Page

 3  = Site Map

 4  = Search

 6  = Help

 9  = Contact Us

 L  = Latest News Section

 M  = Members Area

 E  = Equal Opportunities Section

If using Internet Explorer you then need to press  Enter  to go to the required page.

Please note that Access Keys are not supported by Opera or below version 4 or 5 of other web browsers.

Navigation

You can navigate to other links using the  TAB  button, then pressing  Enter .

Text Size, Fonts and Colours

Most Web browsers allow you to override the font styles, sizes and colours to give a plain layout view, that:

• makes text black on a white background (or however your browser is set),
• uses a style sheet created or by you or selected from a list of options,
• puts all the information in one column (called "linearised"), or
• leaves content images and removes background images.

In Internet Explorer select the "Tools" option from the main menu bar, then choose "Internet options..." click on the "General" tab, click on the button marked "Accessibility" and select the option you want to change.

In most other Browsers select the "Edit" menu from the main menu bar, then choose "Preferences" and select the option you want to change.

This site conforms to W3C's "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0", available at: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/WAI-WEBCONTENT-19990505, level "A".
