Mr. Robert Watt:

I am trying to find the reference to the word "exemplar". I see it now. We have been criticised repeatedly in that when it comes to the provision of digital services, we are not doing as well as we should. The reason is we do not have a digital identity for every citizen in the country. That is what the process is about. The mygovid.iegateway will be transformative. I hope that in the future we can have a discussion with the Deputy about the benefits in comparison with the costs.
