The Information Management System sub-programme is also expected to show increased spending over the MTEF to provide for "more thorough data management, a streamlined linkage to government's online portals and the gateway e-government project, improved knowledge management and high quality reports". Over the medium term the focus area of this programme will be on maintaining the ICD's electronic information system and update the case management system. An improved case management system will assist the ICD in achieving better results at addressing case backlogs and speeding up the finalisation of serious crimes in terms of the reprioritised investigation focus areas.
