<p>As an independent public body, decisions on the allocation of resources within
the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC)’s overall budget are matters for the
Commission. In the current financial year, the EHRC has an allocated budget of £17.7m
and has revised its allocated funding for enforcement of these regulations using existing
funds.</p><p>The Government Equalities Office monitors the volume of complaints about
accessible websites made in the first instance to the Equality Advisory Support Service
(EASS), and is satisfied that this remains well within the current budgets of both
the EASS and the EHRC. This position will be kept under review.</p><p> </p>
