What should already be in place — audit framing
17 February 2024 is 834 days behind us. The obligations on this page have been in force since then; treat any gap as an audit finding, not a planning question. The expected baseline under DSA:
- trusted-flagger / point-of-contact appointment — should be done already
- transparency reporting workflow — should be done already
If any of these are missing, the right next step is a gap assessment plus a documented remediation plan — not a re-design of the underlying programme.
