The European Commission on 25 April 2006 outlined an eGovernment Action Plan in which it said that administrative modernisation in the 25 EU Member States could save European taxpayers hundreds of billions of euros every year. Information and communication technology was considered to be the key to modernising government services: making them more efficient and more responsive. 100% take-up of electronic invoicing and electronic public procurement was predicted to save 300billion euros every year. All Member States had already signed up to an ambitious agenda to achieve these goals in Manchester in 2005 (see MEMO/05/446). |
