On the Information Governance Toolkit, there are fields linked to each requirement to record the location of evidence or to upload evidence. Do I need to complete these fields?
No. It is important to make some comments to support your score, this could be by making some comments in the comments box or ticking the relevant evidence obtained boxes but it is not mandatory to complete the optional fields to record where each piece of evidence is located or to upload evidence such as policies and procedures. Note some evidence will include commercially sensitive information and would therefore be inappropriate to upload.
