Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what the success rate is of verified user identities from the Government Verify system being accepted by the departmental service being accessed by that person.

‘Success’ in this context is measured as the percentage of people with a verified identity who are then ‘matched’ with the departmental service they are attempting to access. Matching ensures that the user is shown the correct record within the service. Between January and August 2017, the matching success rate was 88%.
