The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is responsible for enforcing the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’).

Technical information about this website’s accessibility
CQC is committed to making its website accessible, in accordance with the Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018.
Compliance status
This website is partially compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) AA standard. The non-accessible sections are listed below.
Non accessible content
The content listed below is non-accessible for the following reasons.
Word documents as forms
We use Word documents for providers and managers to submit applications and notifications. These do not fully meet accessibility standards. They may not be fully accessible to screen reader software. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.2 (name, role, value).
The documents are essential to providing our services. You may need to print the documents to read them or fill them in.
We’re working to produce accessible versions of these documents.
Interactive tools and transactions
Some of our interactive forms are difficult to navigate using a keyboard. For example, because some form controls are missing a ‘label’ tag.
Our forms are built and hosted through third party software and ‘skinned’ to look like our website. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.3.1 (information and relationships).
Content that’s not within the scope of the accessibility regulations
PDFs and other documents
Many of our older PDFs and Word documents do not meet accessibility standards – for example, they may not be structured so they’re accessible to a screen reader. This does not meet WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.2 (name, role value).
Some of our PDFs and Word documents are essential to providing our services. For example, we have PDFs with information on how users can access our services, and forms published as Word documents. We’re working to either fix these or replace them with accessible HTML pages.
The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they’re not essential to providing our services.
New PDFs or Word documents we publish will aim to meet accessibility standards.
Our inspection reports are published in PDF through an automated system. We’re working to replace this system with one that will produce accessible versions of those reports.
What we’re doing to improve accessibility
We launched a new version of our website in March 2023. We aim to make the website fully compliant with the WCAG 2.1 AA standard.
We’re creating new digital services to replace forms published as Word documents, PDFs and older interactive forms. Our aim is for these services to be fully compliant with the WCAG 2.1 AA standard.
