Given the time period covered, and the nature of the Deputy's request, it will require an extensive review of records to respond to this Question. My Department is currently in the process of compiling the information requested and will aim to forward this to the Deputy within 10 working days.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51.
My Department has identified no record of unlicensed / lapsed software being used. Controls are in place to ensure only approved and licenced software is installed on
Departmental systems and licence renewal dates are closely tracked to ensure any
required renewals are auctioned in a timely manner .
