TAXPAYERS are on the hook for £45billion over archaic public sector services, ministers warned.
Tech Secretary Peter Kyle has vowed to digitise government systems after an audit laid bare the burden of physical systems — including NHS paper-based admin.
Meanwhile Brits themselves often have to file forms in person such as registering death, which will be made digital.
Kyle said updating the process may net a £45billion “jackpot”, enough to fund all primary schools in Britain for a year.
He said: “Technology at the foundation of our country has been left to decay.
“It often grinds to a halt and stalls essential public services — racking up a huge taxpayer bill.”
THE SUN SAYS: Poor value
CHANCELLOR Rachel Reeves’ vaunted Office for Value for Money is, itself . . . a waste of money.
At a time when we desperately need to cut public spending, pointless quangos like this should be first in the dustbin.
Meanwhile, it’s refreshing to hear Technology Secretary Peter Kyle vow to drag Government departments into the digital age and cut £45billion wasted on archaic staffing and service practices.
But we’ll believe it when it happens.
