Information charter
The UK delegation to the IGC handles information in accordance with Cabinet Office protective marking guidelines. Protective markings are labels applied to information to show: the correct level of protection the information has; the processes to be followed for handling that information; and the severity of impact should the information be lost or inappropriately transmitted.
The UK delegation to the IGC is bound by the principles of the Data Protection Act 1998. Personal data is protected within the UK delegation to the IGC according to Cabinet Office guidelines. If the UK delegation to the IGC receives a request for information which constitutes personal data, then the UK delegation to the IGC would treat the request as a subject access request under the Data Protection Act 1998. Generally, the UK delegation to the IGC is not obliged, under the Data Protection Act 1998, to disclose any information which is personal data relating to another individual.
The UK delegation to the IGC believes that it is in the public interest to make information readily accessible, where appropriate, and for it to be subject to public scrutiny.
