ARC Paper 1.1 CNPA Data Management Report FINAL

This document contains the Cairngorms National Park Authority's internal audit report for 2020/21 on data management. The report, completed in February 2021, found that while some data management procedures were good, there were areas needing improvement. Key recommendations included updating existing policies to ensure they are current and consistent with regulations like GDPR, implementing compliance activities, limiting file structure modification rights, and creating a subject access request response procedure. The report also advises on transitioning to cloud services and considers the impact of Brexit on data storage and management. A management action plan is included with deadlines for addressing the recommendations.
