My Department will shortly complete a strategic plan for the development of e-government and e-public services in my Department, local authorities and bodies under the aegis of my Department. In addition, there are currently several major e-government developments under way in my Department. These include a system which will allow housing grant applicants to track their applications as they are processed and a system to enable electronic application for the driving test. My Department is also co-ordinating a major project which is providing free Internet access to the public through the public library service.
