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.

Efficiency in preventing light pollution of the environment

In December 2017, the SAI Slovenia published the audit report on efficiency of Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning in preventing light pollution. The audit report "shed a light" on this often overlooked part of pollution caused by human activities.


The audit revealed the following:

  • Slovenia is one of few countries which legally regulated the field of light pollution already in 2007. Objectives, 3 times less sky glow and 20% reduction in energy consumption were set to be achieved by 2016;
  • However, restrictions pertaining to electric power do no longer ensure pollution reduction due to development of more energy efficient illuminants;
  • The regulation does not define admissible light spectrum or colour temperature. Colour of the illumination however strongly relates to impact on nature, humans and the way how light disperse in space;
  • The Ministry does not monitor the situation in the field of light pollution regularly and comprehensively. However, the Inspectorate exercises regular control but not enough for comprehensive monitoring of the situation;
  • SAI Slovenia has recommended that Ministry should better identify the situation and to redefine the applicability of current legislation and to adopt necessary changes.

Ministry has fully accepted the criticism and committed to implement recommendations.
