Following DCMS stakeholder engagement roundtables, Policy Connect have submitted responses to the Data: a new direction consultation and National Data Strategy indicator suite.

We would like to thank all of those who joined these roundtables and contributed towards Policy Connects submissions. Combined with the points raised in the roundtables, the responses were also based on the APGDA’s previous research and recommendations made in Trust, Transparency and Tech and Our Place, Our Data.

DCMS are looking to analyse and consider the feedback received as part of the consultation and NDS call for evidence in the development of the indicator suite and hope to share updates in 2022.

We look forward to reviewing the outcomes of these consultations and continuing to work with DCMS, business, industry and academia in this area.
