The
e-Government Strategy team is responsible for developing central
policy and strategic direction for the e-Government programme.
Government Departments are making
good progress towards the target of making all government
services available electronically by 2005. This provides us
with the opportunity to take a longer term view of the direction
the e-government programme might take (i.e. beyond 2005).
The team is working with Departments
to develop a longer term vision for the e-government programme
and public services more generally and how this might be delivered.
The team led the OeE through the
2002 Spending Review and manages OeE's relationship with HM
Treasury, including leading or co-ordinating roles in Capital
Modernisation Fund (CMF) and Invest to Save Budget (ISB) rounds,
and in the operation of the "dual key" for Electronic
Service Delivery (ESD) funding. It also lead on OeE's involvement
with the Cabinet sub-committee on Electronic Service Delivery
- PSX(E), setting the work programme and co-ordinating briefing.
The key documents relating to
e-Government strategy include:
Modernising Government White
Paper March 1999
The Modernising Government White
Paper was published in March 1999. It set out the government's
vision for modernising public services and the government's
commitment to exploit new technology to offer opportunities
and choice in the delivery of public services. It also included
the original target for all service to be made available electronically
by 2008
(later brought forward to 2005).

e-Government: a strategic
framework for public services in the Information Age
After the Knowledge economy Cabinet
Meeting held on 30 March 2000, the Prime Minister announced
that the target contained in the Modernising Government White
Paper giving the date by which time all government services
would be available electronically, be moved forward from 2008
to 2005.
The e-Government Strategic Framework,
published in April 2000, required all Departments to produce
e-business strategies showing how they planned to implement
electronic government and service delivery taking into account
technical policies, including compliance with the recommendations
of Successful IT (published in May).
