All of the government websites on the 23rd of september 2020 and by law to comply with toegankelijkheidseisen, for example, for the visually-impaired and hearing people. A tour of the NU.nl it appears that three-fourths of the municipalities are still not in compliance. Only one-half of the municipalities believe that the deadline.

Ron's Legs, a programme manager at the Accessibility, then questioned it. The foundation has spent twenty years working with digital inclusion, and run a more manual scans of the accessibility of websites and mobile applications, to be determined.
He said that the hoofdwebsites of the municipalities may comply with the requirements, but argues that the churches often have dozens of systems that need to be met. It's going to be systems that, for example, local taxes, making appointments, or, in the huisvuilkalender. "That's a lot of work, and in some municipalities it is the complete web team, but have a couple of fte's," said Legs.
in Addition, according to him, it is not for the technical adaptation of a web site, but to ensure the accessibility of the organisation as a whole. "It's more important to get the structural course of action than to have to rush to meet the deadline, and after that, the focus is to let go of."
"The requirement is not new,"
"The requirement for government agencies to make their web sites more accessible and to keep track of, it is not a new one. That has been in business since 2008," says a spokesman for Logius, the service to digital government, from the federal ministry of the Interior and kingdom relations.

In all cases in which it fails to meet the requirements, it must be a government entity, a concrete action plan and that implementation of the plan. According to Logius, the municipalities will certainly be feasible to set specific actions, in order to plan and implement, and at the latest on the 23rd of september, an account of them. "The toegankelijkheidsverklaringen, and the plans will be available starting september 23, will be monitored," said the spokesman.
the fact that The majority of the municipalities seem to be actively working on the structure to facilitate access to the site. As will be more fully to new websites to be built, and have a lot of branches, accessibility of management to address and have been staff on a training course will be sent.
"We have been using this process for a number of years now," says a spokesman for the municipality of Hardenberg, the netherlands. "By monitoring and making the right choices, we try to be as good as possible, the information is accessible for everybody to do."
