Wigan Civil Contingencies Project

The case study has been rewritten and is complete except for the Executive Summary. This will be complete and will be ready to be published in March.

SAVVI Rural and Island Child Poverty Project

We hit a significant milestone in this project in February which was the development of a data reuse proposition including the lawful basis and legal gateway for crisis grants applications (Part of the Scottish Welfare Fund) that are administered by local authorities for addressing child poverty. The SAVVI process enabled the three council’s involved to form considered opinions on whether data reuse is legal from its original purpose to the new purpose. The councils are also looking at options afforded by the Digital Economy Act 2017 for other reuse propositions and requests for data from external source organisations.

This has been enabled by the use of the SAVVI process and information governance framework to define the new purpose and vulnerability, risk factors and a risk policy and how the required risk factors can be derived from data sources.

GMCA’s Supporting Families Data Mesh Project

SAVVI and GMCA met on 6 February and agreed that SAVVI will develop definitions using SAVVI standards to express the data flows within the project so that they can be replicated in other supporting families programmes.
