The Government Communication Service became the new name of the Government Communication Network following an announcement in late 2013 by Angus Maude.[1]
Following the priorities set out in the Communications plan for 2013 to 2014, the 11 point plan for reform of the GCN to create the GCS includes:
- creating a new Government Communication Service
- mandatory evaluation to track effectiveness and justify value for money
- aligning departmental communications strategies with government priorities
- revising and improving communications spending controls
- improving governance through a new Government Communication Board
- creating group communication structures to align work of departments and their major arms-length bodies
- improving cross-government internal communications
- improving regional communication services
- enhancing existing communications hubs to improve joint working between departments
- providing additional central resource to support departments
- integrating social media and digital channels within all communications functions, including the press office [1]
