Readable layout

Plain language and scan-friendly sections

Pages use headings, short cards, visible links and plain-English summaries so readers can scan the briefing without decoding raw document names.

Mobile support

Designed to work at phone widths

Public pages are checked on phone-sized screens so menus, cards and buttons stay readable without sideways scrolling.

Keyboard and focus

Links and buttons stay reachable

The site uses standard links and buttons. Interactive elements such as the subscribe popup include close controls and focus handling.

Motion restraint

No decorative motion dependency

The site avoids motion-heavy effects. Useful content and navigation should remain available without animation.

Source/link clarity

Links describe where they go

Reader pages, source links, FOI links, archive search and public status pages are labelled so readers know what will open before they tap.

Contrast and density

Visual review catches readability issues

Desktop and mobile views are checked for overlap, clipping, unreadable text, off-canvas content and severe density issues.

Known limits

These are the places where reader feedback is especially useful.
