How did we get here?
In 2004 the government web went from a loosely coordinated collection of websites...
to something a bit simpler...
directgov
businesslink
A tremendous achievement, which brought enormous benefits, but it’s time to move on again
directgov
businesslink
The web is now mainstream
Users expect high quality service experiences
And businesses know how to deliver them
We’ve gone from this...
directgov
businesslink
directgov
businesslink
...to a single domain
