RAG Commentary
Project has been given an overall RAG of AMBER, reflecting the AMBER status against Time. This is because it is likely that a delay may occur in the completion of the Business Analysis due to the loss of the resource to the Core Systems Programme. A new BA has been assigned and handover has taken place.
