In a hard-hitting report published yesterday, the Commission of Audit (CA) slams the Public Administration and Civil Service Bureau (SAFP) for its “sluggish” progress in the development of e-government services over the past two decades.
The report can be downloaded from the commission’s website http://www.ca.gov.mo/, in Chinese and Portuguese language versions.
The report says that back in 2001 the government set up a working group – consisting of officials from a raft of government entities – tasked with formulating strategies and coordinating related tasks by various entities for the development of e-government services. The operation of the working group is coordinated by the Public Administration and Civil Service Bureau.
