answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/01/2015 answer text <p>The Department for Education has not estimated potential savings from the Q&amp;A system over the periods requested. We have also made no assessment of the extent to which the system has made it easier to answer questions on time.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The system has, however, been welcomed by the Department. It is now easier and quicker to submit answers to parliamentary questions online, compared to the previous process of submitting answers in hard copy.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department is currently developing a new IT system to handle its parliamentary questions and wider correspondence. While this system would have been introduced without the introduction of the Q&amp;A system, we understand that the two systems will be compatible and this could lead to a more efficient process for receiving questions and submitting answers in future.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Mr Nick Gibb question first answered 05/01/2015 11:48:09 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
