Yesterday, I mentioned Simon Moore's excellent report on trustworthy computing. Ireland's Information Society Commission produced a report several months ago entitled, "Building Trust through the Legal Framework." The suggestion is that government has an over-riding responsibility to create a trusted digital environment in order for a society to transform into a true "information society" which has become a major objective for the Irish. They would like to move from 27th into the top tier of European nations in areas like eGovernment. In order to build trust, they are suggesting measures like the creation of a "trust and confidence" mark that could be used by Irish electronic commerce providers and the appointment of "data protection commissioners." Another report, Building the Knowledge Society, more specifically addresses the issue of building eGovernment.
Ireland's Electric News Network has a regular column dedicated to eGovernment issues.
