Select committee asks for feedback on government IT strategy

10 Jan 2011 12:00 AM | Anonymous

The Public Administration Select Committee (PASC) has launched a review on the government's IT strategy.

In a paper entitled Good Governance: the effective use of IT Issues and Questions, the committee invites responses to questions around the strategy so far. This has included cuts of £95m to central IT spending ,announced in the emergency budget; a moratorium on new contracts greater than £1m; steps to centralise IT procurement; and renegotiation of contracts with suppliers.

Key questions include: have past lessons from NAO and OGC reviews about unsuccessful IT programmes been learned and applied, and what role should IT play in a ‘post-bureaucratic age'?

Relevant parties should respond to the paper by noon on 21 January.
