The Government will promote the changeover to electronic commerce and electronic services and introduction of new ways of organising work by developing the operating environment for electronic commerce in close collaboration with businesses. Central in this work is the efficient use of such an information infrastructure where the information produced and maintained by public funding is made widely available to various users.
The Government promotes the production of a broad range of digital cultural content and sees to it that they can be offered on a large scale. The aim is to have a strong and diverse national production structure of digital contents with internationally increasingly competitive products and an innovative and skilled workforce. The Government’s aim is to improve transport services by utilising ICT (transport telematics).
