iStandUK Chair Introduction
The sector is waking up to the importance of information standards, without which we find we struggle to communicate and work effectively. iStandUK’s work this year has included supporting DWP and council electronic communications, Smart Cities, the Code of Practice on Transparency and developing a new data ecosystem for complex families. The results of this will be visible to many Local Authorities and Partners, LeGSB is providing support and expertise to individual organisations.
