UNECE Working Party on Land Administration SESSION 2. Chair: Ekaterina Meskhidze. Real property cadastre and registration services in the ECE region: the impact of “E-government” reforms 8 – 9 May 2010, Minsk, Belarus
Integration of the basic national information resources • Belarus – “E-Government Infrastructure in Belarus” • Sweden – “Digital information as a base for E-government reforms” • Denmark – "Integrating national information resources: the Danish way“ • Lithuania– “Integration of Main State Registers - Lithuanian Experience”
Issues to address • A single government wide e-government policy is very helpful, it can make agencies work well together in a same action plan • The needs to be a will to build the systems because it can be very challenging • Getting the legislation in place is essential but can be quite challenging, sometimes this can mean rationalizing legislation where are the different acts for each government department in a jurisdiction • It is important to set a good pricing policy, needs to be decided who will pay, e.g. mapping can be financed by selling it as a commodity to partners. • Strong leadership is needed
Issues to address • Semantic issues need to be addressed, e.g. the same word can have a number of different meanings within the same jurisdiction • Organizational compatibility can sometimes be an issue, organizations can have different traditions and working methods • The need to overcome technical problems should not be forgotten, although in some jurisdictions technical problems have not been significant • To what extend can and should the private sector be involved? Private sector partners are often in a strong position to develop a much wider range of services, using registry data for the benefit of citizens
Issues to address • It is important to agree standards, this can be driven by the INSPIRE directives • Be prepared for more demand. Success can be hard to handle
The benefits of integrated basic national information data • Reduction of the administrative workload, cost and time required to provide services for citizens and businesses • Improvement of the quality of the information • Growth of transparency, empowerment of citizens, effectiveness and customer orientation in administration services, the service is the same for everyone • Application of the “one-stop shop” principle, synergy due to larger number of products in one place
