Data Protection Impact Assessment
A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) helps the Trust to identify, assess and mitigate any potential privacy risks that may arise when processing personal data. DPIAs are now a mandatory requirement for any changes to current data processing practices, the launch of a new project or the adoption of a new practice or system which involves personal data.
All completed DPIAs are submitted to the Information Governance Group Meeting for review and approval. The membership includes the Senior Information Risk Owner (SIRO), the Data Protection Officer (DPO) and the Caldicott Guardian (CG).
Below is a record of DPIAs undertaken by the Trust since May 2018. A full version these documents can be obtained via a Freedom of Information (FOI) request.
