Written Question
Attorney General: ICT
Thursday 30th November 2023

Asked by: Matt Rodda (Labour - Reading East)

Question to the Attorney General:

To ask the Attorney General, what is the annual cost to the public purse of her Department's expenditure on (a) IT infrastructure, (b) IT infrastructure purchased prior to 2013 and (c) legacy IT infrastructure for each year since 2010.

Answered by Michael Tomlinson - Minister of State (Minister for Illegal Migration)

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is responsible for the provision and management of up-to-date IT infrastructure, applications and processes for the Attorney General’s Office (AGO).

It is not possible to derive costs specific to the AGO as the IT infrastructure provided is not accounted for separately. The CPS do not hold a centralised record of AGO IT infrastructure costs. This information could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
