What is the Office of the e-Envoy’s role?

As the part of the drive to make government services available electronically, the Office of the e-Envoy aims to stimulate a mixed economy in the supply of e-government services by encouraging intermediary organisations. The Intermediaries policy framework provides guidance to government, private and voluntary sector organisations.

The Policy

It is our vision that by creating the right conditions over the next three years we will establish a mixed economy of the supply of public services. By then, consumers and businesses will, in addition to other government channels, be using e-enabled intermediaries from the public, private and voluntary sectors to use public services in the manner that suits them.

Our policy is therefore that all departments should involve private and voluntary sector intermediaries for e-government services as part of their overall e-government strategy.

Recent Developments

The policy framework was published for public consultation on 29 May 2003.
