All-Party Group on Policy and Public Data

Purpose: With the increase in data-driven initiatives and the growing recognition of the power of data there is a need for a mechanism to consider at government level how routinely collected data is used for public benefit, including access and availability, public voices, areas of research and evidence need, and legislative and policy change. The APG on Policy and Public Data will be an important way to access data-driven evidence for policy and lawmaking, and to champion your constituents’ voice in how their data is being used for them.
