Find out more about projects that have been approved through the Researcher Access Service and the public benefit they deliver.

About the Data Use Register

In the interest of transparency, Research Data Scotland (RDS) publishes the public good statements of each project approved through the Researcher Access Service (RAS) on our Data Use Register. This register is updated on a regular basis as new projects are approved by the RAS Approval Panel.

Public good, also known as public benefit, means that there should be some ‘net good’ accruing to the public; it has both a benefit aspect and a public aspect. Head to our research for public good page to learn more about public benefit. Please also note that each statement of public good has been written by the project's Principal Investigator(s).

Data for all projects listed below has been provided through the Scottish National Safe Haven in line with the Five Safes Framework. Visit our page on research data security to read more about how public sector data is kept secure.
