In response the Parliament of Australia home page has had alternate 
text added <http://www.aph.gov.au/>.

It now passes an automated accessibility test, but only at the most 
basic level (level one). The page also failed an HTML validation test 
with 4 errors: 
<http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.aph.gov.au%2F&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0>. 


It would be a good idea if the basic problems were fixed, about a 
fancy new design was worried about.
