The eGovernment Action Plans are important instruments that have helped advance Public Sector Modernisation across the EU over the past 15 years. In order to continue eGovernment activities in the EU beyond the mandate of the current eGovernment Action Plan 2011-2015, the recently published Digital Single Market Strategy for Europe foresees that the Commission will present a new eGovernment Action Plan 2016-2020.

 
In preparation for this new eGovernment Action Plan, the European Commission’s DG Connect organised a workshop, the aim of which was to gather views and opinions from key stakeholders on their expectations from the new Action Plan. The workshop also aimed to improve citizens’ and businesses’ experience when interacting with public administrations and to facilitate their relationship with government.
 
The discussions were structured around three sessions: 
  • Policy principles: our aim is to identify the underlying principles for future public administrations and institutions in Europe to ensure a well-functioning Digital Single Market, a prosperous economy and the wellbeing of European citizens.
  • Key enablers: this session will explore the basic elements that the new Action Plan should take into account in order to achieve its policy principles.
  • Strategic objectives: the aim is to identify possible priority areas that can ensure that activities launched under the Action Plan will stimulate innovation and growth, reduce administrative burden speed up service delivery and increase transparency and trust.
