Digital Identity National Stakeholder Group
Overview
The Digital Identity National Stakeholder Group met over the period February 2018 to May 2019. Stakeholder engagement for the digital identity programme has been refocused on a broader communications and engagement programme, including the public engagement work and open sessions, such as the online event held in November 2022.
The Scottish Government Digital Strategy committed to work with stakeholders, privacy interests and members of the public to develop a robust, secure and trustworthy mechanism by which an individual member of the public can demonstrate their identity online (to access public sector digital services).
This group (formerly the Online Identity Assurance National Stakeholder Group) will inform the design, direction and prioritisation of the Scottish Government's digital identity programme of work.
