E-Government strategies, and the policies and
regulatory activities required to develop and govern
a Digital Society are often developed as loosely
connected or even separate activities. Recognizing
this risk, the Digital Society strategy takes a
highly integrated approach, with careful lines of
responsibilities and accountabilities, and a special
office to support integration.
|
Here are some of the opportunities that Digital
Society projects offer: |
|
• |
Streamlining Government services to citizens
and business, better, faster service, and
reduced bureaucracy. |
|
• |
Supporting the growth of knowledge-based
industries and developing a local ICT sector.
|
|
• |
Supporting a more competitive environment.
This will result in better service and
reduced costs to customers. |
|
• |
Providing employment for nationals.
Knowledge-based employment offers the best
prospects for growth, while providing
relatively well-paid jobs. |
|
• |
Providing new and improved health, education
and entertainment facilities. |
|
• |
Higher levels of security. |
