Review and Comment on Scottish Government digital identity strategy and requirements 

Scottish Government digital identity strategy and requirements - Call for Comments

  • Martin asked what the relationship is between what the Scottish Government is doing and what the UK is doing.
  • Mark K. responded that the position has been that various things are devolved politically, and the Scotts decided that they will have something which was only for services in Scotland; as a result it did not have to work or be compatible with anything else. Separately, the central government department responsible for central governments in England and Wales, decided to provide its own system. The responsibility for the eIDAS interoperability is with the central government in London. In Scotland there is nearly an attempt to provide a public sector solution for a public sector set of issues. The dynamics are certainly different.
  • Colin noted that if you read the document, you will see frequent references to UMA, some references to Consent, but not Kantara’s Consent Receipt. Also, there is certainly discussion about assessment and certification, but interestingly they point to a different direction.
  • There are fourteen questions in the document.
  • Ken clarified that Kantara is not directly involved in any of them.
  • It was commented that item 15 provides the opportunity to make the suggestion of having a third party.
  • It was pointed out that it would be good to have a drawing of how these various entities relate to one another. It was argued that the document was hard to read.
  • It was suggested to start gathering comments and answers in a GDoC.
