Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, pursuant to the Answer of 14 March 2017 to Question 66826, what estimate her Department has made of the number of people without core digital skills who will be trained through the additional programme with the Good Things Foundation.

The Future Digital Inclusion programme run on behalf of Government by the Good Things Foundation has, as of February 2017, trained 699,000 adults since October 2014 in basic digital skills. We expect a further 207,000 people to be trained over the course of the next financial year.
