This issue was identified as part of the accessibility testing performed on the DTA website Jan 2017: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3SXZ9dr83v0Y2cwV21HdUZ1STQ

The issue is related to the site and local nav on the DTA website, and since we are using these elements from uikit I believe this issue should be addressed in uikit.

[5] Information is lost when text is resized to 200%
Type: WCAG failure – 1.4.4 Resize text Desktop and mobile
Platform: Desktop and mobile
Severity: Medium

When text is resized to 200%, the global and main navigation items are no longer visible.
Note that we perform text-only resize testing for Success Criterion 1.4.4 Resize text since browser resizing will never fail this criterion. The text should be able to be resize up to 200%

Recommendation
Ensure that text size can be increased to 200% without any loss of content.
