For more efficient and transparent services, a bill mandating government agencies to shift to digital or Internet platforms has been filed in the House of Representatives.
Representatives Martin G. Romualdez of Leyte, Ferdinand Alexander Marcos of Ilocos Norte, and Yedda Marie Romualdez and Jude Acidre, both of party-list group Tingog, are the authors of the proposed E-Governance Act of 2022, embodied in House Bill 3.
The proposed E-Governance Act seeks to establish integrated, interconnected, and interoperable information, resource sharing and communications network, which shall include internal records, management information system, information database, and digital portals spanning the entirety of the national and local government for the delivery of public services.
It would cover all government offices and agencies, including local government units and government corporations. The bill mandates the DICT to harmonize and coordinate all ICT plans and initiatives “to ensure knowledge, information and resource-sharing, database-building, and agency networking linkages among government agencies, consistent with e-government objectives in particular and national objectives in general.”
