Europe doesn't set all the rules at the EU level, this type of thing was probably law in many EU countries before it was law at the EU level.

Mellvar is completely wrong, the law was drafted in 2000, and became compulsory in 2009 because there were a couple of countries that hadn't complied

Not sure what agenda they're pushing, or if they're confused with the new law that says that all web based sites now have to be inclusive
