The operating model for the database is designed around an assumption that certain processes can be automated. This means that some of the duties the government expects the database operator, local housing authorities and users of the database to carry out will be dependent on successful testing of the technology, and on applying learnings as the database is rolled out. A regulation-making power that covers verifying, correcting and removing entries means that duties can be tailored to the technological abilities or limitations of the database. For example, spot checks on gas and electrical safety certificates may be necessary if it is found that this cannot be done accurately in a digital format.
