UK Government's Inquiry Invitation Regarding National Data Strategy Proposals
The Center for Data Innovation has submitted a response to the UK government's open call for evidence on its National Data Strategy, which was launched in June 2020. The response offers a series of suggestions and proposals aimed at fostering the use and power of data across government and the wider economy.
One of the key proposals is the promotion of data-driven innovations for all. The Center suggests that this could be achieved by providing incentives for data-driven innovation and encouraging collaboration between academia, government, and the private sector. However, the response does not provide specific details about the methods for developing digital economy skills or promoting data-driven innovations.
Another significant proposal is the development of the types of skills required for the digital economy. The response suggests supporting the private sector's use of data to increase productivity and improving public services through appropriate sharing and use of data within government.
The comments on the Center's response offer additional suggestions for the National Data Strategy. Some comments propose that the strategy should establish a national data council to oversee its implementation, while others suggest enhancing the strategy's focus on data privacy and security.
The National Data Strategy also aims to develop a trusted data ecosystem and prioritize the use of open data. The response supports these aims and proposes improving services through data sharing between government and the private sector.
In conclusion, the Center for Data Innovation's response to the UK government's National Data Strategy provides a comprehensive set of suggestions and proposals aimed at fostering data-driven innovation and improving public services. While the response does not provide specific details about the methods for implementing these suggestions, it offers a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussion on the UK's digital future.
