Identity Management and Privacy Principles V2.0

The Scottish Government wishes to drive forward trustworthy uses of data for public benefit. This is key to our focus on prevention in delivery of public services.


These updated Principles refer to the most recent good practice codes and guidance, as well as including a new section: Data use for Research and Statistics. This reflects the increasing importance of data in the production of research and statistics which support informed policy making, operational planning, and efficient use of resources.
