Information Governance
Is this current, and where did it come from?
Currency, accuracy, provenance, and trustworthiness made visible.

Every recommendation linked to issuing body and guideline code.
Transparent timestamps
Last-checked and last-updated visible on every item.
Superseded flagging

Digital governance coverage
Digital assurance requirements now sit within information governance so source transparency and transformation controls stay visible.
Explainable sources
Clear statement of what sources are included — and excluded.
Update cadence
Transparent disclosure of how often sources are checked and indexed.
No hidden transformations
Clear distinction between verbatim guidance and derived structure.
Machine-readable metadata
JSON-LD / structured data for external validation and assurance.
