This code replaces the original one published in 1996. It takes account of further duties placed on service providers to make adjustments when the physical features of their premises make it impossible or unreasonably difficult for disabled people to use their services. Although these remaining deities do not come into force until 1 October 2004, this code is issued so that service providers may be proactive and to assist them to prepare for their future obligations.
