<p>Digital inclusion is a cross-cutting issue that spans social engagement, education,
employment, access to services and many more elements of everyday life. Responsibility
for relevant policies and activities, including monitoring and evaluation, sit across
government.</p><p>Government draws on evidence from a variety of sources including
the Office for National Statistics, regulators, and trusted partners and stakeholders
from across the sector. Importantly, we seek to use such data and evidence to better
understand the impact on day to day lives.</p><p>DSIT will continue to work with Government
colleagues and with key external stakeholders from across the sector to better understand
the impacts of overcoming digital exclusion and ensure that policy interventions are
evidence driven. DSIT has also committed to exploring options for funding research
to improve the Government’s evidence base on digital exclusion.</p>
