By the end of March 2012, the ZBR work groups will have considered information requirements in their relevant policy areas. OIDB will then determine which changes to further consult on with a view to collections in respect of 2013/4 onwards.

OIDB is also taking note of the wide range of comments made through the recent consultation exercise. Recognition is given to the way that changes in national collections can impact on systems, processes and recording practice in Local Authorities; the OIDB will work to ensure that a minimum of six months notice is included in any notification of change.

The ZBR Programme Board has approved a set of high level deliverables, and set out the scope of each workstream.

ZBR Outline Deliverables

Subsequent to the approval of this document, and in recognition of the tight timescales for the work, the OID Board have agreed that work on prevention will be shared across the main policy groups, and a separate workstream will not need to be established.
