Completing the administrative reforms and launching the e-government into operation, in compliance with EU standards, are top priority tasks for working out in 2004, State Administration Minister Dimitar Kalchev said on Wednesday after a meeting with Mongolian State Minister and Government Administration Chairman Olziisaiichan Enchtuvshin. The Mongolian delegation was presented with the pace of administrative reforms in Bulgaria and the capacity of the e-governmental portal where the EU negotiation process with the country and the status of each negotiation chapter can be tracked down.
The first online administrative services were officially launched September 2003 as the first step for Bulgaria towards fulfilling its national strategy for building efficient e-government system.
A total of 20 online administrative services - including firms and vehicles registration - will be available in Bulgaria by the end of 2005. Through the optical cable infrastructure covering so far half of Bulgaria's territory, the exchange of information between institutions will considerably speed up.
