Subject: [teitac-subparta] Comparable Access Current Language

When determining if individuals with disabilities have access to and use of
information and data that is comparable to that available to individuals
without disabilities, each agency shall ensure that individuals with
disabilities have access that is timely, accurate and complete, and in a
manner and medium appropriate to the significance of the message. Timely
access includes consideration of the speed with which a person with a
disability can use electronic and information technology to access
information or perform a task as compared to an individual without
disabilities. Accurate and complete access ensures that the information and
data reflects the intended meaning especially when converted into another
form or media.
