1. The Evolving IG Lead Role Phil Walker IGA

2. The IG Lead Role I am constantly surprised by the breadth and variety of work undertaken by IG Leads, but there are a number of constants: The IG Toolkit Too much work to do & not enough support Fire fighting rather than shaping programmes Problems recruiting IG staff

3. Why does the role need to evolve? Challenges New/enhanced security standards (expected in the NDG Report) Number of reported incidents increasing – 533 level 2 incidents last year - Disclosed in error’ (46%) - Unauthorised access/disclosure’ (18%) - Lost or stolen paperwork’ (13%) A new focus on integrated care, partnership working across care communities with smaller organisations that need additional support New legislation, including a new legal duty to share information and a new Data Protection Regulation Opportunities New SIRO and Caldicott Guardian manuals to drive closer working across IG New initiatives around professionalistaion including possible new Association of Information Governance Professionals Advice & Guidance from the Information Governance Alliance (IGA) Better use of technology to make information sharing agreements relevant and easier to manage An improved, simpler, Information Governance Toolkit and new e-learning resources to be delivered in 2016/17 ‘Top 3’ incident types = 77% of total

6. WHY? Education. Associations may advise on qualifications required for entry into the profession and promote the introduction of formal courses of study that enable persons to obtain these qualifications. They may, as an alternative, offer educational programs themselves. Usually they provide training sessions and workshops to update the qualifications of professionals already at work as archivists or to introduce new technologies and areas of practice. Public Awareness. Associations present thematic conferences and workshops for their membership, sometimes held jointly with other professions, to discuss issues and problems current in their practice. Advocacy. An Association can represent the interests and needs of information governance professionals in lobbying governments and organisations for adequate support for information governance. It can lobby to influence policy makers and legislators, bringing expertise and common sense to bear when changes are proposed or resisted. Communication. Most associations publish a newsletter to update members on issues and communicate the activities of the executive and committees of the association. Often they publish a journal that provides a forum for in-depth and intellectual treatment of aspects of their professional work. Meetings are also an important means of enabling communication among members. A Professional Association
