According to a survey conducted on behalf of the Danish Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation by a consulting firm specialising in information
technology for people with disabilities, 52 % of the Danish government websites are not fully e-accessible to people with various types of disabilities.

 

A total of 226 government websites were tested, including pages that are directly covered by the agreement on the mandatory open standards and a variety

and with the HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) standards.
