The Data Assurance Board is an ORGANISATION.
The Data Assurance Board (DAB) is responsible for scrutinising and approving the publication of new, updated, or retired Information Standards and Data Collections (including Extractions) under the authority delegated by the Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB).
The Data Assurance Board's key responsibilities include:
- ensuring data standards align with the target data architecture
- approving and publishing Information Standards and Data Collections (including Extractions)
- evaluating the adoption of approved Information Standards and Data Collections (including Extractions), focusing on reducing duplication and provider burden.
From May 2024 the Data Assurance Board has been given delegated authority to approve Information Standards Notices on behalf of the Data Alliance Partnership Board, who retain overall responsibility for the assurance and approvals process.
For further information on the Data Assurance Board, see the NHS England website at: Governance of information standards.
