2/4 Since March the CDEI has been working with NHSX as it develops a COVID-19 contact tracing app. In particular, the CDEI supports the new Ethics Advisory Board established to provide constructive challenge to the app development team.

[4] Transparency
[5] Control
[1] Value
[2] Security (and privacy)
