The Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) leads across government on data-related policy issues, both within Government and the wider economy.
Through this call for evidence DCMS are aiming to consult on the parameters and objectives of the strategy and gather evidence that will underpin a draft strategy.
The call for evidence is inviting any relevant information, studies, reviews, statistics, grey literature, measures or metrics that you feel will support the evidence that will inform the National Data Strategy.
Whilst DCMS will mainly focus their activity on engaging with academics, civil society, bodies that represent citizens, bodies that represent smaller businesses and start-ups, and the wider public sector; they also encourage members of the public to get in touch.
The written submissions are to be sent by email to nationaldatastrategy@culture.gov.uk in a document format like ODF or Microsoft Word. If you are unable to submit via email you can post your response to National Data Strategy team, Room 4.52, 100 Parliament Street, Westminster, London, SW1A 2BQ.
The call closes on 14 July 2019. DCMS will publish a summary of relevant evidence as part of a formal National Data Strategy consultation later in 2019.
