Data Security and Protection Toolkit deadline - 30 June 2021

Practices need to demonstrate their compliance with the Department of Health and Social Care’s data security and information governance requirements by the end of June.

This is achieved by submitting a self-assessment using the Data Security and Protection (DSP) Toolkit, an online tool that replaced the IG Toolkit in April 2018.

The deadline for the 20-21 submission is 30 June 2021.
