Conclusion
By early 2018, the Department had recognised that the programme would not deliver as originally planned. It had underestimated the amount of work required and the effort remaining was unaffordable within the allocated budget. In June 2018, the Infrastructure and Projects Authority (IPA) reviewed NLEDS and concluded that delivery of the programme appeared to be unachievable. The Department began its first ‘reset’ of NLEDS in early 2019. By autumn 2020 the police had lost confidence in the programme and, in response, the Department began a second reset, which is still being implemented.22 16 Qq 48–51 17 Q 94; C&AG’s Report, Figure 9 18 C&AG’s Report, para 3.7 19 Qq 94, 95 20 Q 96 21 C&AG’s Report, paras 9–12 22 C&AG’s report, paras 13–14, 1.13 12 The National Law Enforcement Data Programme
