The Czech Senate today approved an e-government bill that the Interior Ministry hopes will reduce bureaucracy and save citizens' and clerks' time.

The bill counts with the creation of electronic data boxes through which offices would communicate among themselves as well as with firms and citizens who have their own data boxes.

Interior Minister Ivan Langer speaks about a public administration revolution in this connection.

The bill was supported by a majority of 53 out of 56 senators present. It was also passed by a majority of the votes in the Chamber of Deputies in June.

The bill is to take effect on July 1, 2009.

State bodies will be obliged to communicate electronically with one another while it will not be obligatory for all individuals.

"But we are looking for ways to motivate them to have the boxes," Langer said previously.

The ministry will create data boxes for interested persons free of charge within three work-days of the application filing.
