To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Kamall on 2 August 2022 (HL1602), whether they will (1) publish, or (2) place in the Library of the House, copies of the specifications for any dashboards for the purposes listed, in the manner NHS England expect to make available similar specifications for interoperability with the Federated Data Platform, if the Palantir Procurement were to be successful.

It is expected that all existing dashboards within Foundry will be interoperable. Over the coming months, an assessment will be undertaken to determine which dashboards will be migrated to the new Federated Data Platform and which will be decommissioned. The format of the specifications for these dashboards will be developed as part of the planned transition activities of the programme.
