520 _aDiscusses the challenges of meeting the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 Part III. The Act relies on case law to define its parameters and will evolve over time, making it difficult for the industry to keep abreast of changes. Looks at Configure's new software, SmartAudit, a hand-held computer which records access audits of a building. The audits are uploaded to a database which is continually updated as the legislation changes. Also highlights the disability organisation Scope's new programme, Access Equality, and the importance of ensuring accessibility for the 2012 Olympics.
