The spend to date and budgeted amounts are in the table below. The budget for the transition to Individual Electoral Registration (IER) was set in 2010, based on robust cost projections and included optimism bias in line with best practice. Careful management of budgets, combined with an agile approach to the development of the IT supporting the move to IER has helped to ensure that, to date, the programme has come in under budget. <\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The budget for IER has supported three rounds of pilots since 2011 and a complete national test of the IT that will support the automatic confirmation of at least 78% of current electors. It has enabled the allocation of resources to Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) and partner organisations (£4.2m in the current financial year) to improve the completeness and accuracy of the Electoral Register. <\/p>

Cabinet Office staff are entitled to take up to 52 weeks of maternity leave. <\/p>

Staff who have been continuously employed by the Civil Service for 26 weeks prior to the 15th week before the expected date of childbirth are eligible for maternity pay.<\/p>

Within the Cabinet Office maternity pay is equivalent to full pay for the initial 26 weeks (ordinary maternity leave). During the following 26 weeks (additional maternity leave) Statutory Maternity Pay is given for the first 13 weeks. The remaining 13 weeks are unpaid.<\/p>

Individuals who resign and do not return to work following maternity leave are usually required to refund any contractual element of maternity pay they have received. <\/p>

Cabinet Office systems do not hold specific information on staff who depart after periods of maternity leave. However, over the last 5 years, we estimate that 96% of staff who were on maternity leave returned to work. <\/p>
