Information Governance Toolkit Version 12 is now live

Version 12 of the Information Governance Toolkit has gone live this month. 

Here is a summary of the changes for this release of the toolkit:

• A new Local Authority view in IGT Version 12 has been created, replacing the previous Social Care Delivery/Local Authority (SCD/LA). The SCD/LA requirement set has been amended to eradicate duplication of IGT requirements/public service network information assurance (PSN IA) criteria and rationalise and refine current requirements to improve relevance to the Local Authority working environment (i.e. reducing and replacing the NHS centric content).
• Minor changes to the Hosted Secondary Use Team/Project view to make this view more accessible for the academic/research community.
• Essential updates have been made to the content where needed such as removal of outdated references to deprecated standards and responses to issues raised by IGT users.
• Updates have been made in line with the Department of Health’s response to "Information: To Share or not to Share?" (also known as the Caldicott2 review report).
• Minor functionality changes to the look and feel of the IGT.
