Information Governance Fundamentals

Information Governance is a framework, which supports how organisations and individuals manage the way information is handled. It applies to sensitive and personal information of employees, patients and service users, and to information related to the business of the organisation. It is about setting a high standard for the management of all information and giving organisations the tools to achieve that standard.

Several legal requirements, standards and guidance apply to information handling. Please click below to find links to relevant legislation, guidance and standards and All Wales Policies.
