The London Councils funded a feasibility study in Autumn 2009. The summary report is now available and published on the London Councils website. This report and the business model may be of interest to other authorities.

DWP Expressions of Interest
In December nearly a dozen authorities expressed an interest in the DWP invitation to support trial(s) of smart card applications. All the response were forwarded to DWP with a brief summary of the applicants. DWP is now following up with each during January.
The SCNF was delighted to see the number and range of responses which reflects the growing interest in applications of smart cards beyond transport. It will be excellent to see a number of these proposals move forward including the one(s) selected by DWP for funding.
SCNF will be following developments closely and the event on the 3rd March will provide insight into the possibilities and existing experience in other schemes.
To be the first to receive new information, make sure you have signed up to the SCNF.
