Draft instruction framework for government monitoring and referral work
NSOIT delivery and escalation instructions — DRAFT
The disclosed NSOIT delivery and escalation policy is a document marked DRAFT describing how the team and delivery partners should collect information, receive instructions and refer material to platforms. It is evidence of a proposed operating framework, with adoption and applicability to particular contractors unestablished.
Agreed collection and bounded escalation
The draft requires documented instructions covering sources, search terms and task scope, together with onboarding and continuing legal and privacy assurance. Sustained monitoring requires ministerial agreement. It describes sensitive political and journalistic-origin exclusions and collection, retention and surveillance limits. Its escalation provisions concern potential breaches of platform terms within ministerial remit, with platform action remaining discretionary. Some thresholds and approvals are redacted. The retained copy does not establish final adoption, the named approver of a referral or an automatic removal mechanism.
