  • Introduction Accessibility Across UK Local Authorities
    Accessibility across UK Local Authorities Socitm and Sitemorse collaboration – supporting BetterConnected Introduction Digital accessibility regulation is challenging to manage and is negatively impacting those for whom the rules should be assisting. Public sector bodies must deal with accessibility, against a timetable. Now with a specific timeline in relation to the public sector achieving accessibility compliance for their websites, we have summarised our Q3 / 2019 results, reporting the position across the sector. For over 10 years Sitemorse have been in partnership with Socitm, working on numerous initiatives including BetterConnected. Sept. 29th 2019 | Ver. 1.9 | Release | © Sitemorse In Summary. For the Sitemorse 2019 Q3 UK Local Government INDEX we assessed over 400 authority websites for adherence to WCAG 2.1. The INDEX was compiled 37% following some 250 million tests, checks and measures across nearly 820,000 URLs. 17% Comparing the Q3 to the Q2 results; 49 improved, 44 dropped, with the balance remaining the same. Three Local Authorities achieved a score of 10 (out of 10) for accessibility. It’s important to note that the INDEX covers the main website of each authority. The law applies to all websites operated, directly or on behalf of the authority. 46% The target score is 7.7 out of 10. • Pages passing accessibility level A: 87.11% • Pages passing accessibility level AA: 12.2% • Of the 3,550 PDF’s 56.4% PDF’s passed the accessibility tests. Score 10 - 7 Score 5 - 6 Score 1 - 4 It is important to note that this score is for automated tests; there are still manual tests that need to be performed however, a score of 10 demonstrates a thorough understanding of what needs to be done and it is highly likely that the manual tests will pass too.

  • What Do I Need to Submit a Planning Application?
    What do I need to submit a Planning Application? Applications for Planning Permission. This guide has been developed to assist you in the submission of planning applications across the Black Country (Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton) excluding applications for discharge of, variation of or compliance with conditions, applications for certificates of lawfulness, time extension and non-material amendments. The aim of this guide is to help applicants submit the right information with an application to ensure the Local Planning Authorities (LPA) are able to deal with your application as quickly and comprehensively as possible. Please note that not all items within this guide will be relevant to every type of planning application and you should pay particular attention to the third column which specifies the application type. This checklist brings together existing information requirements to be submitted alongside a planning application and is not intended to impose additional requirements on applicants. We strongly encourage you to obtain pre-application advice from the relevant LPA who will assist you in putting together your development proposals. Contact details for each LPA are provided at the end of this checklist. A list of policy drivers for each validation list requirement is listed in the “attached policy driver document”. The guide has been structured to help you through the submission process. Each item has been coded as follows: (S) Statutory Requirements that must be submitted in order for the application to be validated; (L) Local/Other Requirements that should be submitted as they inform the decision-making process but would not stop the application from being validated.

  • Corporate Peer Challenge Follow-Up Visit to Wirral Council
    Corporate Peer Challenge Follow -up visit to Wirral Council th th 8 -9 May 2013 Summary Report 1. Background and scope of the follow up visit It was a pleasure and privilege to be invited back to help Wirral Council assess the progress made since the Local Government Association (LGA) corporate peer challenge in October 2012. The peer team very much appreciated the efforts that went into preparing for the visit and looking after us whilst we were on site, and the participation of elected members, staff, partners and other stakeholders in the process. The follow up visit, as with the full peer challenge, aimed to be improvement-focussed and tailored to meet Wirral Council's needs. The visit was designed to complement and add value to your own performance and improvement focus. Peers used their experience and knowledge of local government to reflect on the information presented to them by people they meet, things they saw and material that they read. The peer team provided feedback as ‘critical friends’, not as assessors or inspectors. The peers who carried out the follow up visit to Wirral Council were all members of the original peer challenge team: Rob Vincent – former Chief Executive of Kirklees Council and Doncaster Council Councillor Peter Smith (Labour) – Leader of Wigan Council Councillor Michael White (Conservative) – Leader of Havering Council Jamie Morris – Executive Director, Walsall Council Ian Simpson – Performance Improvement Consultant Andy Bates – Principal Adviser (Peer Support) LGA Paul Clarke – LGA Peer Challenge Manager In terms of the scope and purpose of the visit, you asked the peer team to provide an external ‘stock take’ of improvement journey made since the peer challenge in October 2012 by highlighting notable progress, but more importantly by identifying areas requiring further attention, improvement and development.
