5: PAC conclusion: We see a clear risk that the Department will not be able to deliver the programme by the end of March 2022. 5: PAC recommendation: The Department should set out and explain its exact milestones up to overall programme delivery by the end of March 2022 for the main elements of the Digital Services at the Border programme, including Border Crossing, Semaphore, connecting to e-gates and holding secret level data. 5.1 The government agrees with the Committee’s recommendation. Recommendation implemented 5.2 The detailed programme delivery plan has been further amplified with exact milestones baselined at the DSAB programme board, running through to the end of the programme in March 2022.
