N2 - The need for anonymity preservation within the justice domain requires the introduction of a trusted third party as an intermediary, while integrating individual databases within its boundaries. After the trusted third party encrypts records, it is no longer possible to perform checks on the data quality and correct data anomalies. Therefore, this research examines the concepts of data quality, data integration, record linkage and trusted third party and, then, combines these with four expert interviews in order to identify ways to assess and improve data quality while linking privacy-sensitive data. Next, the trusted data linkage framework (TDLF) is presented to aid data quality management while combining citizens' privacy-sensitive data from different organisations. Finally, we evaluate the framework in a case study to demonstrate how the quality of structured judicial data can be managed prior to its encryption, while using multiple databases as sources of data and a different final recipient.
