2 1. INTRODUCTION Information Governance is defined as the way by which information is handled. Information Governance is the term used to encompass the multi-disciplinary structures, policies, procedures, process and controls which are implemented to manage the processing of information within an organisation. It provides a framework for processing information in a confidential and secure manner, as determined by legislative acts, statutes and best practice guidance such as:- The Data Protection Act 1998 The Freedom of Information Act 2000 Computer Misuse Act 1990 Human Rights Act 1998 Access to Health Records Act 1990 Environmental Information Regulations 2004 Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 Lawful Business Practice Regulations 2000 Mental Capacity Act DEFINITIONS The University has developed the following definitions: The University has a Corporate Plan, which outlines its vision and strategic themes. This has been agreed formally by the University Executive and Board of Governors, and contains high-level principles that drive how the University formulates policy. A policy is a concise statement of principle which states how the University will operate in a particular area. Policies provide the operational framework within which the University conducts its business. A central register of policies is maintained by Business Assurance. A procedure states how we will implement policy on an operational level. They serve to inform staff about how to accomplish their work within current systems. A guidance note defines the recommended approach for conducting a specific activity, and should provide operational detail, instructions and advice that facilitates the implementation of a code of practice. 3. INFORMATION GOVERNANCE MANAGEMENT 3.1. Objective: To ensure appropriate management arrangements are in place to effectively manage the Information Governance agenda Responsibilities Board of Governors and Vice Chancellor Ultimate responsibility information governance rests with the Board of Governors. The Vice Chancellor, has executive responsibility for all aspects of information governance and together with the Board of Governors, will ensure that proper procedures are in place to fully implement this policy. The Vice Chancellor is responsible signing any undertakings with the Information Commissioner on behalf of the University due to non-compliance.
