When to use this component

This component can be used at any point on the page.

Accessibility notes

When there are multiple useful items, they are announced by a screen reader as list items within a list. When there is only one useful item, a screen reader does not announce it as a list item.

We have added the role list and listitem to the corresponding list items due to a VoiceOver bug to reinstate the list semantics.
