Code Compliance Assessments
Following extensive consultation, including with the bodies to whom our functions extend, the Scottish Biometric Commissioner's National Assessment Framework for biometric data outcomes was published by the Commissioner in January 2022.
The purpose of this document is to set out details of the National Assessment Framework for biometric data outcomes in Scotland to be used by the Scottish Biometrics Commissioner when conducting the general function prescribed in law to support and promote the adoption of lawful, effective, and ethical practices in relation to the acquisition, retention, use, and destruction of biometric data for criminal justice and police purposes in Scotland.
