Under the Accessibility Act, public bodies are required to develop an Accessibility Plan and make it public within 2 years. The Act also outlines what the Accessibility Plan should include, the measures to take in barrier removal, and the procedures to assess that the measures are working. Engagement with persons with disabilities and disability groups are an important part in the development of the plan. When the accessibility standards become regulations, the standard should be incorporated into the accessibility plan.
