Ian Watmore, Head of the Prime Minister’s Delivery Unit, says in the Implementation Plan’s introduction: “The publication of Transformational Government in November drew positive comment from colleagues, the media, industry and industry watchers. I believe this reflects the collaborative approach and wide-ranging engagement that took place both inside and outside of Government whilst the strategy was being prepared. We have since received submissions in response to the strategy from over 100 organisations and individuals – a summary of the main issues raised is being published with the plan.”
“At a time when technology is fundamentally changing people’s daily lives, the Comprehensive Spending Review is offering a unique opportunity to embed the principles of Transformational Government across government. I am keen that the excitement, motivation and momentum that the strategy generated are not lost as we work towards putting it into action.”
“There is clearly much to do, as set out in this document, but we are laying the foundations for change. Colleagues, IT professionals and everyone involved in service improvement across the public sector have worked hard to deliver these foundations. I have no doubt that – together – we will deliver the whole.”
