Information Management Strategy (DB)

Minutes:

Darren Butler introduced the report which sought Member approval to treat information as an asset, managed by specific asset owners. The Director of Corporate Resources clarified that the relevant staff to take on these roles were already in the Authority’s establishment – the report did not imply extra posts to the establishment.

 

There was a small correction in paragraph 1 of the report to change the 5-year period from 2015-2010 to 2015-2020.

 

In response to a request from Members, a separate briefing on the issues raised in the report would be made available following discussion between the officers.

 

The recommendations were moved, seconded, voted upon and carried.

 

RESOLVED:

 

1.

That members approve the adoption of Information Management Strategy 2 including the principles, deliverables and methods described within it.

 

2.

That members approve the identification of Information Asset Owners (IAO’s) throughout the organisation to provide a management structure for the Senior Information Risk Owner (SIRO) to fulfil the duties of that role.
