UK Algorithmic Transparency Recording Standard Template
A template for describing algorithmic tools used in public-sector work and the reasons for using them.
Published by UK Government Digital Service
How to use it
The template has two levels of detail. One gives the public a plain-language summary. The other lets specialists inspect details such as who operates the system and how it is used.
Draft the short version around one real decision. Explain what the tool contributes, who has the final say, and where someone can get help. Use the detailed record to document the parts reviewers need to verify.
