With the DDA now reaching further into the concsciousness of employers - has anyone any experience of having universal access audits performed? Is the standard generally high? Are they very expensive? and most importantly - will they become compulsary for public bodies????

Hi
The answer is yes, you do have to be adhering to the DDA. However don't get too stressed. I have found that there is a lot of scare mongering out there.
Reasonablness is the key to DDA so a balance of common sence and budget comes in to play.
However, if it is seen that an adjustment to your building should be made, then Part M (building regs) is compulsory.
Shout me if you want any more info.
