 *Revenue costs include procurement, software licenses, data storage, operational systems support, etc.

(c)  To date, none of the above projects have overspent. An additional budgetary requirement (over and above  the  funding  provided  in  the  Government  Plan  2021-24)  has  been  identified  for the  ITS Programme (included in the above figures) and scrutiny was briefed on 9th March 2021. A transfer from reserves to provide the funding required for 2021 was included in MD-TR-2021-0013. The additional funding required for future years reflects the need to backfill full-time staffing requirements as identified in the full business case and a contingency figure, this funding will be included in subsequent Government Plans.
