The government continues to encourage more people to go online, so they can access the guidance and services they need \u2013 as well as reducing the cost of public services. The department has continued to reduce its paper consumption. This has been achieved through a revised print strategy and a continuing programme of IT improvements, such as Access UK (a single online Immigration application service for UK-based and international customers) which are helping to decrease our reliance on paper.<\/p>
<\/p>
Details of the department\u2019s performance in reducing its paper consumption were published in the Greening Government Commitments Annual Report \u2013 April 2015 to March 2016 on 20 April 2017.<\/p>
