Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:
To ask His Majesty's Government what percentage of all government back-office digital systems have been migrated to public cloud; and what timeline the Government Digital Service has set to complete migration.
This question was answered on 20th May 2025
The State of Digital Government review (January 2025), states that at least 60% of the central government IT estate is now hosted in the cloud, but that other areas of the public sector, such as local authorities, policing and the NHS, are less advanced in cloud adoption. GDS is committed to working with all public sector organisations to drive cloud adoption as per Cloud First policy.
