They come into force on 1 October 2004, and on the same day the 'premises adjustments' provisions of the DDA will also come into force. These will require service providers to make physical adjustments to their premises to accommodate disabled people. These two very significant pieces of legislation will thus have a considerable impact on everyday working practice across a wide range of sectors.
