I don't think you need the button Pat. You just need to include the icon within the link. Something like this:

<p>For more information, please visit the <a href="xxx">website of the Information Commissioner <img alt="opens in a new tab"></a>.</p>

A screen reader will read this as "link website of the Information Commissioner opens in a new tab".
