<p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is committed to reducing our dependence on legacy
IT systems. This is in keeping with wider efforts across Government, and in accordance
with the Central Digital and Data Office’s Legacy IT Risk Assessment Framework.</p><p>
</p><p>As outlined in the National Audit Office report entitled <a href="https://www.nao.org.uk/reports/the-digital-strategy-for-defence-a-review-of-early-implementation/"
target="_blank">The Digital Strategy for Defence: A review of early implementation</a>
in 2022, the estimated annual departmental spend on digital, which includes IT infrastructure,
is approximately £4.4 billion. MOD does not routinely collect consolidated information
for spending on legacy IT, and so data is not held in the format you have requested;
this could only be provided at disproportionate cost.</p>
