Since 2001, the central State, the regions and the municipalities have worked hard to exploit Information Technology (IT) to create a modern and efficient public sector. The close cooperation between all levels of government has allowed Denmark to have a world class digital infrastructure.
A good starting point for the future strategy will consist of giving additional impetus to the digitisation of the public sector. Digitisation is deemed an essential tool in the frame of the efforts to tackle a number of economic challenges facing Denmark in the coming years.
According to the terms (in Danish), the strategy should pursue the further spread of digitisation in all areas where the public sector has close relationships with citizens and businesses, in particular in the fields of education, social affairs and employment. Likewise, the new strategy will provide for the continuation of joint work on common public solutions such as:
- Digital signature NemID;
- eGovernment portal for citizens Borger.dk;
- eGovernment portal for businesses Virk.dk;
- Bank account NemKonto (Easy Account, in English) - the bank account designated by citizens to receive payments from public institutions;
- Secure digital mailboxes, etc.
