Following on from a previous document published in June 2005, this report is the second compilation of the IDABC eGovernment Observatory country Factsheets and presents an overview of the situation of e-government in the 25 EU Member States as of November 2005. As part of its mission to inform the European e-government community about key issues of common interest, the eGovernment Observatory maintains a series of Factsheets presenting the situation and progress of e-government in each Member State of the EU, providing for each one of them a wide and consistent range of information: Country Profile (basic data and Information Society indicators); History (major past e-government developments and milestones); Strategy (vision, objectives and principles supporting the e-government drive); Legal Framework (main legal texts impacting on the development of e-government); Actors (key organisations involved in the e-government drive); ﾑWhoﾒs Whoﾒ (main decision-makers and executives steering and shaping the move to e-government); Infrastructure (key components of the nationwide e-government infrastructure); e-services for citizens and for businesses (online availability and sophistication of services for citizens and businesses, based on the eEurope common list of basic public services). This second compilation report provides the most extensive sum of information to date on the advancement of e-government in the enlarged EU.
