E-Government in Czech Republic Strategy: The core principles guiding the development of e-Government are listed in a policy document applicable for the period 20082012. The e-Government concept it contains can be summed up as follows; e-Government is the means to satisfy the citizens' expectations as to public services while modernising the public administration, in a way to cut both red tape and costs. Citizen satisfaction stands as the ultimate indicator of success. To reach success, the relevant legal basis must be established and the supporting infrastructure must be made interoperable.
E-Government in Czech Republic Major achievements : The Czech Republic is one of the few EU Member States to have an e-Government Act. The Czech e-Government Act s in force since July 2009, and it provides for the following set of principles: Electronic documents are equally valid as paper documents are; The digitalisation of paper documents is enabled; Electronic document exchange with and within the public administration must be as simple as possible and fully secured, by means of certified electronic signatures; Government to Business and Government to Government communications shall be stored on the dedicated Data Box set up by each legal person, be that private or public.
