<p>The Prime Minister’s Office and the Deputy Prime Minister’s Office are integral
parts of the Cabinet Office.</p><p>The new Q&A system replaces an outdated paper-based
process with a digital solution for responding to Written Parliamentary Questions.
This has made things considerably more simple for officials, particularly those working
in my parliamentary team. In addition, following the introduction of the Q&A system
within my Department, a decision was taken to end an existing contract with The Stationery
Office that resulted in an annual saving of £6,508 (Ex VAT).</p><p>It will be for
the Procedure Committee to evaluate the effectiveness of the Q&A system in improving
performance when it assesses the evidence following the end of the session.</p><p>
