Default Disability Discrimination Act - compliance ?

Normally I stay clear of websites as every Tom Dick & Harry claim to do them these days, but I've just been asked to prepare a website for a friend and the local Business Link have stipulated it must be in compliance with DDA

Has anyone got a definitive list of what needs to be done in order to comply ? I've searched around and its a bit of a grey area.

I assume its the ability to resize text for visually impaired people and the use of alt tags, which my code always provides anyways, but it would be good to get it all pinned down before I begin.

Don't know about specific compliance but the W3C have good guidelines:
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0
