Supporting Definitions provide information to help users understand content in the NHS Data Model and Dictionary.

Each Supporting  Definition name is distinguished from Classes, Attributes and Data Elements by appearing in Title Case rather than UPPERCASE (see the example below) and where the name appears in text in Blue, it indicates that it is a hyperlink and if clicked on will display the definition for that NHS Business Definition.

An example of a Supporting Definition is an Information Standards Notice.
