Commission and Belgian Presidency promote eGovernment

Brussels, 19/10/2001 (Agence Europe) - Sixty on-line administration services have been selected by a team of independent experts for the quality of their interactivity with their users. These services, chosen from 282 proposals from various countries, will be awarded the "eGovernment" label. They will be presented at the "Conference on eGovernment: From Policy to Practice", jointly organised by the European Commission and the Belgian Presidency on 29 and 30 November 2001 in Brussels. Forty-five of them will form part of an on-the-spot exhibition. Erkki Liikanen, European Commissioner responsible for Enterprise and Information Society, Luc Van den Bossche and Rik Daems, the Belgian Ministers responsible for Public Administration and Telecommunications respectively, will participate in this event, alongside numerous ministers from the countries involved. The Member States of the European Union, the EFTA countries and candidate countries have competed for this prize for excellence in the field of technology placed at the service of administration users and customers at local, regional or national level.
