Cabinet Office launches consultation on departmental data sharing

LONDON, 05 January 2023, (TON): Cabinet Office seeks views on a proposal to support fast, safe and secure departmental data sharing to enable access to online government services.

The consultation, which will run for 8 weeks, focuses on amending existing legislation to make it easier for citizens to prove their identity by supporting data-sharing and identity reuse across government.

It will do this by strengthening the legal basis for public sector data-sharing for identity verification purposes.

As part of the GOV.UK One Login programme, the Government Digital Service (GDS), part of the Cabinet Office, is collaborating with departments to build a single sign-on and identity checking solution for all public services, called GOV.UK One Login.
