Answer

I am advised that Customs’ current Central Web Accessibility Checker score is 100. Agency Central Web Accessibility Checker scores are publicly available using the following link: https://www.digital.govt.nz/standards-and-guidance/nz-government-web-standards/centralised-web-accessibility-checker-cwac/agency-leaderboard-cwac.
