The UK public sector has been undergoing a period of sustained change and financial contraction, alongside an increasing demand for essential services. At the same time, the public sector in the UK is creating, sharing and securing more electronic data than ever. The public appetite for transparency and accountability from society’s central institutions (achieved through Data Subject Access and Freedom of Information Requests) has never been greater. 
 

A survey of the U.K. public found that during a public inquiry, most citizens want the government to prioritise evidence discovery above all else. At the same time, transparency, timeliness, and minimising costs were listed as additional important considerations. As the government faces a rising frequency and intensity of public inquiries and other types of disputes and investigations, meeting these expectations may be difficult in light of the growing role of complex, high-volume data in the fact-finding process.
