The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, whether he plans to consolidate the gov.uk app with the (a) gov.uk one login, (b) gov.uk ID check and (c) HMRC app.

Answered by Kanishka Narayan

The GOV.UK app is designed to sit alongside existing government applications, including those operated by HM Revenue and Customs. My officials continue to work closely with colleagues across government to ensure these services complement one another.

We have already integrated GOV.UK One Login functionality into the GOV.UK app to enable a signed-in experience for users.

Utility and the user experience are key priorities, and we are committed to ensuring a seamless and cohesive experience for all users when interacting with government products and services.
