Greg Knight, the Shadow Minister with responsibility for E-Government was scathing with his criticism.
He said: "The Government's record on botched and cancelled IT schemes is an absolute scandal. The fact that Labour have wasted £1.5 billion of tax payers money on these failed IT projects demonstrates colossal ineptitude and that they have failed to harness information technology in the public sector.
"Failing and over-budget IT projects mean yet more public cash that should be going on front line public services is being wasted on government inefficiency, over-complexity and bungled procurements. It also proves that despite their rhetoric, Labour are not investing tax payers money -they are simply wasting it."
He told Conservatives.com: "These failed IT schemes show that the Government's record is an appalling one of managerial incompetence coupled with financial incontinence!"
