Parliamentary Secretary for the Cabinet Office (): In June 2022, the
Government published Transforming for a Digital Future:
Government’s 2022-25 Roadmap for Digital and Data. This set an
ambitious plan that by 2025, we will deliver a transformed, more
efficient digital government that provides better services for
the people of the United Kingdom.
In September 2023, I published an update to the roadmap to ensure
we are keeping pace with emerging trends, challenges and
opportunities.
At the request of the Public Accounts Committee, I am now
updating Parliament on progress made against the roadmap
including progress made by individual departments. Key recent
achievements include:
-
16 of the Top 75 services have so far reached Great, well on
the way to our target of 50
-
29 government services are now live with GOV.UK(opens in a new
tab) One Login and over 3.3 million people have so far
proven their identity through the new system
-
The Government Digital and Data profession has grown from 4%
to 5.4% of total Civil Service headcount, close to our target
of 6%, bringing in the key skills we need
-
The Generative AI Framework for Government has been
published, to provide detailed guidance, resources and tools
for the safe and secure usage of generative AI
There is much work still to be done, but I
remain confident that under this Government’s plan we are on
course to meet the commitments set out in the roadmap by 2025.
We will be depositing a full copy of ‘Transforming for a Digital
Future: government's 2022 to 25 roadmap for digital and data,
February 2024 progress update’ in the Libraries of both Houses.
