Transforming for a Digital Future: February 2024 progress update: 29 Feb 2024: Hansard Written Answe

Posted by Patria Henriques on Sunday, April 28, 2024

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 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.
