The One Login Inclusion and Privacy Advisory Group (OLIPAG) advised the Government Digital Service’s GOV.UK One Login programme on inclusion, privacy, data usage, equality and digital identity.

OLIPAG provided input and expertise as GOV.UK One Login was set up. Inclusion, privacy, data usage and equality continue to be important to GOV.UK One Login.

OLIPAG was established in November 2023 following the merger of the Privacy and Consumer Advisory Group (PCAG) and the Privacy and Inclusion Advisory Forum (PIAF).

Role of the group

OLIPAG was an independent advisory body. 

The Government Digital Service (GDS) provided the secretariat and supported the effective running of meetings. OLIPAG was independent from government and members were able to express their views freely.

The GOV.UK One Login programme took the advice of OLIPAG into consideration.

Identity assurance principles

The Identity assurance principles for identity services in government, created by the then PCAG, set out how the government’s identity assurance approach should meet users’ privacy and consumer expectations. 

In 2023, OLIPAG reviewed the principles and concluded that they remain relevant to GOV.UK One Login. Following this, in May 2024 GDS updated the principles to outline how GOV.UK One Login adheres to each principle.
