The Information CommissionerÂs Office is carrying out some research to understand more about information governance frameworks in local councils. Last year 40% of FOI complaints and 10% of data protection concerns referred to the ICO related to local authorities and our audit work shows that this is often an area that councils struggle with.
The ICO is conducting a survey aimed at information governance leads at local councils.
