8. Digital Impact Test

Careful consideration will be given to the opportunities afforded by use of digital technology in all aspects of redress implementation. Digital platforms and services will be used to promote efficiency wherever possible whilst ensuring that the redress scheme is accessible to survivors who are not digitally literate. All necessary data security measures will be put in place to ensure personal and sensitive information is handled confidentially. The redress implementation team will draw upon the expertise of the Scottish Government's Digital Directorate and Digital Assurance Team throughout the development of the scheme.
