A two-year study on Irish websites, led by Dr Barry McMullin of RINCE here at DCU, has found that at least 94% of the 159 websites tested failed to meet the minimum accessibility standard for people with disabilities, as defined by the World Wide Web Consortium and not one site met the professional practice accessibility guideline.
