GNIP Community Infrastructure Levy Dashboard accessibility statement

The Greater Norwich Project Team has made every effort to ensure the GNIP Community Infrastructure Levy dashboard is as accessible as possible. However, certain elements remain inaccessible due to limitations within the Power BI software and the specific visual elements used. These limitations are detailed below.

The data in the dashboard is presented in an accessible Greater Norwich Infrastructure Plan 2026 document.

 

Inaccessible elements:

'Neighbourhood CIL Income' tab, 'Map of Neighbourhood CIL income received by parish in Greater Norwich' visual: This is a map that shows the parishes in Greater Norwich and the amount of Neighbourhood CIL income received. This is not an accessible visual. To access this information in a table, Press Alt, Shift and F11, or click on the three dots on the top-right of graphic, to see this data in a table format.

 

Accessibility issues:

  • Headings: Assistive technologies may not recognise some text as a heading text. This may make the information difficult for some users to understand.
  • Scrolling: When zooming in or using devices with smaller screens, you may need to scroll both horizontally and vertically to view all content.
  • Line and word spacing: You can't adjust spacing in Power BI. You can do this using external tools, but this may cause some text to no longer be visible.
  • Title length: Longer titles may not be fully visible. We've tried to keep titles short where possible to prevent this.
  • Font size: Some text may be very small, which may be difficult to read. This is because Power BI doesn't allow us to change text size in some places.
  • Colour coding in visualisations: Power BI doesn't allow the use of textures or patterns in graphs, charts, and maps. We've used data labels and clear and consistent legends to help you understand colour coded content.
  • Chart Y-axis labels: Labels on the Y-axis can't be made horizontal, so may be difficult to read.
  • Tooltips: You can't open tooltips (pop-up information) using a keyboard. You also can't hover over tooltips using a mouse without the tooltip disappearing. Where tooltips are used, we've tried to include the information elsewhere too. Alternatively, to view the visuals in the dashboard in an alternative format, press Alt + Shift + F11 or click on the three dots in the top-right corner of the graphic to display the data in a table format.
