Data Bites #40: Getting things done with data in government - a justice special
Better use of data is key to more effective government. Across government, teams are doing fascinating work with data. But those projects don\u2019t get the attention they deserve. Data Bites aims to change that.\n\nOur latest event, the 40th in our series, was a justice special, where the speakers presented their work in an exciting, quickfire format.\n\nEach speaker had eight minutes, followed by eight minutes of questions from the audience.\n\nThis month's speakers were: \n\nDan Corry, Chief Executive of New Philanthropy Capital, on the work of the Justice Data Lab\nToby Hayward-Butcher, Head of Strategy & Delivery, Better Outcomes through Linked Data (BOLD) Programme, on better supporting people with complex needs by linking and improving the government data held on them in a safe and secure way\nThomas Pope, Deputy Chief Economist at the Institute for Government\nAnna Powell-Smith, Director of the Centre for Public Data, on data and statistical gaps in criminal justice.\nThe event was chaired by Gavin Freeguard, Associate at the Institute for Government.
