The test will not operate alone. There is currently extensive guidance by the ICO on the meaning of “scientific research”. This includes a list of indicators of genuine scientific research and outlines the globally accepted Frascati definition of research. This ICO guidance should be considered when assessing the reasonableness of describing an activity as scientific research; it has to be in the context of the Frascati definition and the ICO’s guidance.
