Data quality is an issue, asking nicely doesn’t improve the quality of the data that is published, claims that it meets a schema are not checked or enforced, and we’re collecting more of it all the time. So I’d like to suggest, for a specific subset of the datasets we hold we try and enforce a way of making sure only quality data arrives on data.gov.uk - my hope is that if it is successful for spend-data, we might try the same approach with other data as well.

Currently, for core-departments, there is HMT guidance for spend data ( https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guidance-for-publishing-spend-over-25000 ) which isn’t being followed. It is technically feasible for DGU, assuming we know it is spend data to attempt to validate the data with this schema.
So I’d like to propose:
Happy to discuss between now and next sprint planning, but I think discussing it in person would also be good.
There is also useful discussion about Spend Schema at co-cddo/open-standards#21
