Local e-government

Local e-government logo The Local e-Government Programme officially closed in April 2006, having succeeded in:

delivering part of the Prime Minister and Cabinet's March 2000 vision of all local councils offering all local services online by December 2005
achieving the SR2004 Public Service Agreement objective of, "assisting local government to achieve 100 per cent capability in electronic delivery of priority services by 2005, in ways that customers will use".

The Local e-Government Programme and all contributors continue to assist and build upon the future progress of all local authorities, ensuring a continued improvement on customer service; influenced by the forthcoming local government whitepaper, comprehensive spending review and the Lyons Report.
