Lots of good and interesting examples in UK Gov's National Data Strategy - gov.uk/government/pub… ... but alas, a huge flaw.
"Data policy is a rapidly evolving area globally" ... no, data evolves. The problem with the policy is that it isn't designed on that premise.

Data evolves, as with practices, activities, knowledge and even ethical values.
You can learn to use context specific methods, you can alter the landscape but you have to first be aware of it i.e. map it.
Use the data labels for the stages if it helps you.

The national strategy for data has nice things but if we don't build on that most basic of premises that data evolves then ... well, you ignore evolution at your peril.
Chalk this one up as a future failure.
UN global data platform has a lot better thinking behind it.

X : How do you mean?
Me : Your approach to investment, to systems, to training, to even which beliefs matter will depend upon context. You remember that Agile vs Six Sigma comment I made?
X : Yes
Me : Do you really think I'm just talking project management? It's everything.

... from project management to the economic systems we use. It impacts any form of capital affected by competition. Oh, and data is a form of capital.
That "policy" screams a new round of one size fits all. A new "tyranny of the agile" or whatever becomes the latest meme.

However, as with activities and practices, the same thing happens with data. As it evolves, different competencies take over. Yes, it has the same "meaning" as in "This Data" rather than "This thing" but different material instances and no single methods apply.
Ah ha ... worth noting -
