It is very welcome that there is an information officer and improvements and ongoing investment in IT systems. I wonder about the historical records as there are different generations of IT and a potential to lose records. What is happening in that regard? Is that happening on an ongoing basis given the potential to lose information. While the Department can mind the data that are being put up now, how is the system kept up to date? What ongoing investment is required?
