In a general way, ACLs could be accessed from anywhere. A simple way to do it is :

1) Store it in your registry : Zend_Registry::set('acl', $myACLObject);

2) Get it when you want : Zend_Registry::get('acl');

For your specific problem, layout has access to each view variables you declared in the controller :

1) Declare your variable in the controller : $this->view->myVarACL = $myACLObject;

2) And in the layout, you can do this : var_dump($this->myVarACL);
