Half the winners are pilot projects. In these cases the ISB investment will help to identify the scope for savings flowing from full implementation. But the other half of the projects that are ready for implementation now are expected to deliver savings of around 50 million Pounds over the next three years. Invest to save is win win. Service users get better services.
Taxpayers get more efficient services.
The ISB helps provide the resources to kickstart initiatives that deliver these results. The projects we announced today are practical examples of what we mean by modernising public services. They demonstrate how our drive for innovative, joined-up and locally responsive government will make life easier for people using public services. I will be publishing a White Paper in the Spring, which will look at the range of issues we need to tackle to improve the services Government provides to citizens. The ISB is managed by the Treasury, in consultation with the Cabinet Office.
