Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the policy paper entitled Transforming for a digital future: 2022 to 2025 roadmap for digital and data, updated on 29 February 2024, when his Department first assessed each of the red-rated legacy IT systems in his Department to be red-rated.

Cabinet Office Digital first carried out an audit between September 2022 and Feb 2023, as part of the work to upgrade our IT estate.

It has created a framework for managing legacy systems in the department and we are proactively working with the Central Digital & Data Office (CDDO), reporting and feeding back updates on progress.

The Cabinet Office aims to have remediation plans in place for these systems next year.
