ICM Governance



IA Delivery Group (IADG)

The Data Handling Review led to changes in IA governance in 2008. These changes included the establishment of ministerial responsibility for IA and supporting committees to oversee IA delivery across Government.

The IADG is one of the oversight committees, chaired by John Suffolk, the Government CIO. The IADG reports to the IA Oversight Board, chaired by Sir Gus O'Donnell, Head of the Civil Service, which reports to ministers on the performance of Government departments in delivering the DHR recommendations and the National IA Strategy.

The IADG articulates wider IA business needs, establishes the "Common Good" requirement for funding IA capabilities, and determines the need for new IA policies and standards.

In September 2008, the IADG adopted the ICM approach as the mechanism to deliver common good IA capability. The group also agreed that Secure Data Transfer would be the first topic to be addressed formally through the ICM.
