Accessibility

The content of the website of the Court of Audit is designed with the purpose to provide universal access to all of the published information – to anyone, at all times, and free of charge. Since the principle of universal access is limited by the health conditions of the users (i.e. visual, motion, hearing, cognitive and linguistic limitations) and technical limitations, we paid special attention to them and tried to adjust the website by considering the following recommendations:

  • font size may be adjusted,
  • key images are equipped with descriptions,
  • there are no moving pictures (GIFs),
  • names of the links are descriptive,
  • videos are mostly subtitled.

The website is optimised for multi-device browsing (computer, tablet, mobile phone) and compatible with different website browsers and software. Recommended is the use of the latest version of website browsers whenever it is possible to provide a better support to the users with disabilities and special needs.Despite the fact that we are aiming to increase the accessibility and usability of our website to the greatest extent possible, all the elements do not provide for the optimisation of the complete accessibility.

Therefore, some published contents do not meet all the demands related to accessibility as defined by the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications Act. Those deficiencies are:

  • we use PDF format for documents:
    • audit reports and other reports with short summaries that are available in text (doc and docx documents) and
    • various presentations (i.e. infographics, posters, manuals);
  • home page provides three elements with scroll box for automatic rotation with limited use of the manual override;
  • photographs and other images are used for visual supplementing of contents related to news and articles; photographs and images are subtitled, include data about source and alternative text, but do not include detailed descriptions or transcriptions of texts, since the adjustment would cause disproportionate burden;
  • schematic presentation of organisational structure of the Court of Audit;
  • documentation of concluded public calls was not adapted, since interference with public procurement documentation of completed public calls is not allowed; when preparing the next public call, we shall follow the standards of accessibility.

Audit Compendium – Public health

The European Court of Auditors in cooperation with the Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) of the EU published this edition of compendium providing an overview of selected audit work from the field of public health. In total, 24 EU Member State SAIs contributed results of their selected audits, among them the Court of Audit of the Republic of Slovenia presented the audit report Tackling child obesity.

Public health is mainly the responsibility of the EU Member States, therefore, health systems vary considerably. National health systems faced many challenges in the last decades, such as rising costs, aging population or the fact that patients as well as healthcare professionals are becoming more and more mobile across Member States.

This audit compendium gives a general overview of public health, its legal basis, main objectives and related responsibilities in the EU Member States and the EU. It also illustrates the main challenges currently faced both by the EU and its Member States in this area. Public health is a complex area to audit. However, due to the importance of public health, the EU Supreme Audit Institutions have performed many audits on related issues.

The results of selected audits carried out by the European Court of Auditors and 23 contributing EU Member State SAIs are summarised in this compendium. These selected audits addressed important aspects of performance as well as issues of public health, namely preventive action and protection, access to health services and the quality of those services, the use of new technologies, e-health and the fiscal sustainability of public health services.

The publication is a source of information for all those interested in this highly important field respectively in selected audits and is available in 23 languages at the Contact Committee web site.
