Non-Personal Data: Policy, Economics and Technology

Abstract

In response to the Expert Committee Report proposing a Non-Personal Data Governance Framework, the authors of this paper organised a series of discussions involving leading experts and practitioners across different fields thinking about NPD. This paper captures and expands on the main issues brought to light, offers our own analysis and critique, and details some suggestions on the way forward. We particularly examine the claimed connections between the proposed framework and its potential to accelerate innovation for the public good.
