The template effect
Agencies reuse one another’s wording heavily, and some of it is wording the Standard asks for. This shows how much each statement is bespoke versus shared with another tracked statement, and lets you browse the exact passages that recur: 194 of them, of which 7 also appear in theDigital Transformation Agency (DTA)’s own statement. Sharing says a passage appears in more than one place, not who wrote it first.
