The Property Portal is being designed in line with the Government\u2019s Digital Service Standard<\/a>. One of these Standards is to \u2018Make sure that everyone can use the service\u2019<\/a> including disabled people, people who do not have access to the internet or lack the skills or confidence to use it. We also intend for the Property Portal to have offline routes available to all users. To support this, the next phase of digital development of the Property Portal will include ongoing accessibility testing with representatives from all user groups.<\/p> My officials have recently met with Disability Rights UK and Independent Age to discuss accessibility and the Property Portal and have reassured them of the intent to follow the Service Standard and provide an offline route for users.<\/p>"}
