Website standards

The Tasmanian Government Website Standards promote consistency in agency websites. 

The Standards include:

  • Web publishing strategy and principles for Tasmanian government;
  • Minimum requirements for the design, development and maintenance of agency websites providing government information and services to the community; and
  • Legislation, legal precedent and Government policies that impact on agency websites.

Minimum requirements are based on applicable law or Government policy, including legislation covering:

  • Archives
  • Anti-discrimination
  • Use of government logo
  • Responsibilities of the State Library

The four standards within the minimum requirements are:

  • Accessibility
  • Discoverability
  • Information management
  • Consistent user experience

Minor changes are made from time to time with the approval of the Web Publishing Reference Group, to ensure that the Standards remain absolutely authoritative.
