One of the most recent, and influential pieces of government legislation concerning access for people who have a mobility or sensory impairment., physical barriers and improve access for all to public buildings & private offices, something that became mandatory in January 2004.

Section 21.2 of the DDA states that "Where a physical feature makes it impossible or unreasonably difficult for a disabled person to make use of a service or building, it is the duty of the provider of that service to take such steps that are reasonable to remedy the situation", i.e.

• Remove the feature
• Alter it so that it no longer has that effect, or
• Provide a reasonable alternative method of making the service in question available to a disabled person.
