Data Governance Framework Template
Organisations rely on data to deliver services, make decisions, manage risk and meet legal and regulatory obligations. Without clear governance, data can become inaccurate, poorly controlled, duplicated, inaccessible or used inappropriately.
This framework establishes a consistent approach to managing data throughout its lifecycle, from creation and collection through to use, sharing, retention and disposal. It defines the principles, roles, responsibilities and controls needed to ensure that data is accurate, secure, appropriately accessible and used for legitimate purposes.
The framework is intended to help organisations assign clear accountability, improve data quality, manage privacy and security risks, support compliance and embed good data practices into everyday operations, systems, suppliers and business change.
