Consultation on the Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation
Detail of outcome
The government launched a consultation outlining proposals for the Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation on 13 June 2018. The consultation ran for 12 weeks and closed on 5 September 2018. We received 104 responses, from a wide range of respondents. In addition to these written responses, we received feedback through a series of roundtable discussions.
All suggestions and comments have been carefully reviewed and assessed by the government as part of its response. The response focuses primarily on clarifying the Centre’s existing functions and strengthening its reporting and recommendation functions. We have also set out where we expect the Centre to provide further clarity going forward and the mechanisms through which it should do this.
