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.
