<font face="Albany">In the discussions of how to make clear who pays
for alternate formats the proposal was made to rewrite 1194.41a, b, and
c to be the text below. In the March 15, 2007 meeting it was agreed to
make this the final version unless issues are raised. Deadline for
feedback is Friday, March 26, 2007.</font><font face="Albany"><br>

<p><b>Subpart D -- Information, Documentation, and Support</b>
</p>
<p><b>§ 1194.41 Information, documentation, and support.</b>
</p>
<p>(a) To enable Federal agencies to provide product support
documentation to end-users in an accessible format, Federal agencies
shall require that all documentation supporting the product, including
but not limited to reports, system documentation and end user training
or technical support materials shall conform the relevant accessibility
provisions in 1194 Subparts B and C.
</p>
<p>(b) Federal agencies shall provide end-users access to a
description of the accessibility and compatibility features of products
in alternate formats or alternate methods upon request.
</p>
<p>(c) Support services for products shall accommodate the
communication needs of end-users with disabilities
</p>
<p>Best Practice : If the documentation supporting the product,
reports or other documentation are to be provided via a contract, then
the contract must include this requirement.
</p>
<p>If the descriptions for the end-users regarding the
accessibility and compatibility features of products in alternate
formats are to be provided via a contract, then the contract must
include this requirement.
