> The WSIS Plan of Action commits governments to: "a) Implement
> e-government strategies focusing on applications aimed at
> innovating and promoting transparency in public administrations
> and democratic processes, improving efficiency and strengthening
> relations with citizens; b) Develop national e-government
> initiatives and services, at all levels, adapted to the needs of
> citizens and business, to achieve a more efficient allocation of
> resources and public goods; and c) Support international
> cooperation initiatives in the field of e-government, in order
> to enhance transparency, accountability and efficiency at all
> levels of government." The WSIS Plan of Action also asserts:
> "Standardization is one of the essential building blocks
> of the Information Society. There should be particular emphasis
> on the development and adoption of international standards
> [...] where consumers can access services worldwide regardless
> of underlying technology."
