Departmental Internet

Volume 468: debated on Monday 26 November 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) how many new websites have been published by (a) her Department and (b) its executive agencies and their subsidiaries since her Department announced its website rationalisation process; (163302)

(2) which websites are run by (a) her Department and (b) each of its agencies, listed by the order in which they went live;

(3) which websites run by (a) her Department and (b) its executive agencies are live but are no longer updated.

The website rationalisation exercise, which forms part of the Government's Transformational Government agenda, proposed a moratorium on the creation of new websites. The Department's policy is to adhere to that position.

There are currently 80 sites across the Department, its executive agencies and subsidiaries, 74 of which have been identified for closure. To clarify the exact date on which each of these sites was published and to clarify whether information has been published recently on each of these sites, would require dialogue with each website owner and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.

Following is a full list of the Department’s and executive agencies’ websites.
