Accessibility Statement And Position
This page records the current accessibility position for the public Medication Shortage Hub overview, registration, demo request, privacy, cookies, terms, and accessibility pages.
Current position
The public pages are designed with skip links, semantic headings, labelled form controls, keyboard-friendly links and buttons, visible focus styles from the site stylesheet, and responsive layouts. The latest automated AWS checks for the public route slice recorded no pa11y errors or warnings, and the current static contrast gate records no critical or design-review contrast findings. This remains a partial accessibility position, not a completed WCAG audit.
Known limitations
Browser-rendered contrast evidence has been started for the private-preview AWS target using synthetic accounts, but some authenticated workflow states, include-only templates, route-parameter pages, and data-conditional branches still need final QA classification. Assistive-technology checks, screen-reader spot checks, and full route-by-route manual WCAG review are not yet complete. The public-route assurance notes record the current scoped position, but they do not make a completed WCAG 2.2 AA claim.
Feedback and support
If you find an accessibility problem, contact the Medication Shortage Hub team using the demo or registration contact route and include the page URL, device/browser, assistive technology if relevant, and the issue encountered. Accessibility issues must be triaged into the Route B evidence pack and remediation queue.
Next evidence required
- Completion of the remaining authenticated workflow, include-template, route-parameter, and data-state QA rows.
- Keyboard-only journey proof for public pages and authenticated role dashboards.
- Screen-reader or assistive-technology spot-check evidence.
- Final known-limitations, remediation-owner, and residual-risk decision.
- Review cadence and retest evidence after material changes.
