GOV.UK<\/a> Notify currently has 1,322 services with over half a billion total notifications sent to date (see here<\/a>). The benefits of GOV.UK<\/a> Notify are primarily driven by HMG only having to incur a cost once instead of multiple times across the 1,322 services. The benefits fall into two broad categories "One-off avoided costs" & "Avoided ongoing costs". These benefits are driven by the number of services adopted across HMG and the transactions of each of those services. Both are forecasted forward based on a combination of statistical techniques using historical data and engagement insight with OGDs.<\/p>

The Government Transformation Strategy is a cross-government programme of work that touches on all aspects of digital transformation. We estimate that there are approximately 17,000 Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) professionals employed across government and directly supporting delivery of the strategy, in addition to a significant number of non-DDaT civil servants working on related activities.<\/p>

Individual Electoral Registration (IER) and online registration have transformed electoral registration, making it easier than ever before to register to vote. The register for the 2017 General Election was, at 46.8 million, the largest ever.<\/p>

The Government is working hard to ensure that Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) have the tools to ensure that electoral registers are complete and accurate. We have developed a range of resources which we have made available to the electoral community and we are convening partners to transfer our knowledge, evidence and resources so they are equipped to tackle barriers to registration for under-registered groups and deliver democratic engagement activities.<\/p>

The Government also continues to work with the Cabinet Office-chaired Accessibility of Elections Working Group to make elections more accessible to disabled people. We are also starting to bring forward measures that respond to issues raised in the Government\u2019s response to the 2018 Call for Evidence on Access to Elections, with the proposals announced as part of the package around the Queen\u2019s Speech.<\/p>

It is for candidates and political parties to encourage people to vote in elections.<\/p>

The Government continues to work with the Cabinet Office chaired Accessibility of Elections Working Group to make elections more accessible to disabled people. Work has already been undertaken with Mencap and the Electoral Commission to produce Easy Read guides for registration and voting at recent polls, and we have worked with the Electoral Commission to update its guidance for Returning Officers and polling station staff.<\/p>

We are also starting to bring forward measures which respond to issues raised in the Government\u2019s response to the 2018 Call for Evidence on Access to Elections, with the proposals announced as part of the package around the Queen\u2019s Speech. These will include increasing the range of support available to voters with disabilities in polling stations and allowing a wider range of people (such as carers) to assist disabled voters in polling stations if needed.<\/p>

In law the UK is set to leave the EU on 31 October 2019. \u201cGet Ready for Brexit\u201d is a public information campaign providing the facts citizens and businesses need to know about the preparations they need to take to be ready for when the UK leaves the EU.<\/p>

In June this year, the Government updated its Public Appointments Diversity Action Plan which sets out steps for improving the diversity of public appointees. The Prime Minister remains committed to this plan, including the aspirations that by 2022, 50% of all appointees should be female, and 14% of appointments made should be to those from ethnic minority backgrounds.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

The latest figures show that 43% of appointees are female compared to 39% in March 2014. The recent report from the Commissioner for Public Appointments shows that 11.9% of appointments made in 2018/19 were to those from ethnic minorities compared to 8% in 2013/2014.<\/p>

At the last Spending Round the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced that £5 million is being made available for the Office for Veterans' Affairs in 2020/2021. The costs of setting up the Office for Veterans' Affairs were met from existing budgets in the Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Defence, and included time from existing staff.<\/p>

Furthermore, this does not represent the totality of government spend to support veterans. For example, we recently announced an additional £10 million to support veterans' mental health and wellbeing needs.<\/p>
