5. PSN is reality…
“Yorkshire and Humberside PSN to help
deliver more innovative public services to
5.5 million”
“Public Services Network gears
up to save taxpayer money” “Fife to save £600k
a year with PSN”
“Leeds puts regional
public services network into
practice” “Scotland plans £325m
public sector network”
“East Midlands
PSN now open for
business”
“New network leads the
way in Cambridgeshire”

6. …and it’s already delivering benefits…
“The three initiatives to reduce ICT spend are
working. In 2011-12, central government spent
an estimated £316 million less than it would
otherwise have done.
On performance to October 2012, government is
likely to meet, if not exceed, the targets for ICT
savings that it set itself in October 2011.”
