Consultation on draft recommendations for accessibility standards

Accessibility standards, once approved, are regulations or laws that help make Nova Scotia accessible.
The Board would like your feedback on their draft recommendations.
You can find the draft recommendations on the menu to the right. There are also summaries in American Sign Language, French, and plain language.
