Answer the following questions about the acceptance criteria within the project.

A. Yes, because the new requirement needs to be understood, built and delivered in this Timebox.

Rationale:

Agile Project Management is adaptable to changes, even late in the development process. The introduction of a new Health and Safety requirement, such as wheelchair access, which is a legal and must-have requirement, needs to be incorporated into the project as soon as it is identified. Working with the Local Planning Authority Officer to define acceptance criteria ensures that the requirement is clearly understood and that the solution developed meets the necessary legal standards. This approach ensures that the team can immediately address the new requirement and integrate it into the current work cycle, aligning with Agile's principle of welcoming changing requirements, even late in development, for the customer's competitive advantage.
