answer text <p>I have made no estimate of the savings specific to my Office following the introduction of the electronic Q&amp;A system, but like other Whitehall Departments, I expect to see savings delivered through the more efficient use of staff time, including through the removal of the need to deliver paper copies of answers, as well as in the reduction of the overall use of paper and other resources.<br><br>My Office has introduced no additional ICT systems or improvements due to the implementation of electronic Q&amp;A.<br><br>One of the benefits of the new system is the possibility for the reporting of the timeliness of answers to Parliamentary Questions to be delivered with greater consistency and accuracy across all answering bodies.<br><br>It will be for the Procedure Committee to evaluate the effectiveness of the new system in improving performance when it assesses the evidence following the end of the Session.</p> more like this
