    Hello, a quick question regarding the Spectra Button element, example output below:

    < a class="uagb-buttons-repeater ast-outline-button" aria-label="" style="border-width:revert-layer" href="#registerinterest" rel="follow noopener" target="_self" role="button">
    Book Online     </a> etc.

    As we can see, the aria-label is blank. Screen readers can identify the button as a ‘button’ using the role attribute, but the issue comes where the button is a link to a new page, and technically the aria attribute should be ‘link’ to inform the user they are navigating to a new webpage or new part of the page to meet WCAG rules. All they are informed of at the moment is ‘button’ and the button title, which unfortunately may be confusing and misleading.

    Just wondering if this was a known issue, if there are any workarounds or any fixes planned. Thanks so much.
