<p>The UK Government follows standards as set by the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB), which are the same standards used by the majority of private sector
bodies (for more information please see the Companies Act 2006). Raw data is an intangible
asset and would therefore be covered by IAS 38 Intangible Assets. The UK government
follows IAS 38 as adapted for the public sector. The Government Financial Reporting
Manual 2018-19 sets out these interpretations and adaptations.</p>
