Accessibility at the core of your expectations
11th February 2005 law for "equal rights and opportunities, participation and citizenships of disabled people" imposes the fitting of 650,000 buildings opened to the public before January 1st, 2015. These buildings should implement accessibility standards clearly stated by the law and should also establish a diagnosis before 2010 .
