Thank you.
In the context of the work that's been done by Accessibility Standards Canada, I can confirm that they have actually finalized.... There are six standards and technical guides, two of which they developed. The one on employment was just released in December. The other, on the accessibility requirements for information and communications technologies, was published in May of this year.
They worked in collaboration with the Canadian Standards Association, and together they published “Accessible design for the built environment”, “Accessible design for self-service interactive devices including automated banking machines” and “Accessible dwellings”. They've also produced a technical guide on it entitled, “Accessible and Equitable Artificial Intelligence Systems”.
There are five draft standards that are out for public review, and there are 11 technical committees that have been established and are working on other standards. I think one of the important considerations around standards development is that it does take time. Just as the minister has underscored the importance of the principle of “nothing about us without us,” Accessibility Standards Canada works very closely with members of the community and technical experts to develop their standards.
