The Minister for Commerce for the Australian state of New South
Wales (NSW), John Della Bosca, will launch the state government's
information and communication technology (ICT) strategic plan in
Sydney this week.
The ICT strategy, dubbed "People First", is expected to set the
framework for a coordinated government-wide approach to ICT
planning, expenditure, and allocation of resources for the next
four years and beyond, according to the Department of Commence.
A media briefing will be held on Thursday, July 27 and include
an information session presented by the NSW government CIO Paul
Edgecumbe.
Edgecumbe will discuss the key priorities, strategies and
objectives of the plan, particularly customer and front line
service delivery improvements.
