Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
Yes. The governance process has evolved quite considerably since 2012 and 2014 when this was done. Now with the Department's ITC governance group, it covers all projects. As usual, new business and any development in terms of upgrades have to come to the governance group with a business case and a set budget. They are also tracked by the governance group through their development and it reports back within various timelines. As well as this, we carry out a post-implementation review when a project is over to try to take up the learnings.
