Part of that will be making NHS software development open source by default, a measure that was welcomed by Amanda Brock, CEO of OpenUK.
“The NHS is a long-term user of open technology and the commitment to an open approach around NHS developments and infrastructure in both data and software is laudable,” she said.
“Public money is invested into these projects, and so the results should be open, re-useable and understandable to all. Using open source licences for any new developments around software is a great step to provide this open-ness and of course essential to building sustainable technology.”
