‘7.27 Research and experience have shown repeatedly that keeping children safe from harm requires professionals and others to share information about a child’s health and development and exposure to possible harm….’
Bichard Enquiry
‘One of the aims of eCare is to develop systems and procedures that will ensure that as many barriers to information-sharing as possible are removed. eCare is much more than an IT solution. It is about ensuring that organisation and cultural change also occurs to enable practitioners to feel comfortable in using the tools and in sharing information across agencies.’
‘In order to identify and address children's holistic needs, information sharing within and across agencies is vital.’

Northern Ireland Migration Statistics
The premise of the 4 Nations Group is that if we are to create a generic person message that will allow systems to match/identify citizens so that there can be a legal and consent-based information flow then we have to establish a common basis for communication.
A standards-based approach
What data is essential to data sharing?
• Name• Address• Gender• Date of Birth/Death• Place of birth• Unique reference number
Benefits
• Customer satisfaction• Inter-operability• Efficiency• Improved effectiveness
How far have we got?
• Initial core data messaging standards produced
• Consultation with other organisations required
• Consultation with the public
• Pilot standards
