Researchers will get specific access to a relevant subset of the datasets that are present in the SDE catalogue for their project and will be able to carry out their research within the safe haven. There are restrictions applied which prevent the researchers from taking data out of the safe haven. Once the research is completed the London SDE admin team will need to be contacted for any requests to egress summary analysis out of the safe haven which will not breach 5 safe standards.
