Government at a Glance 2009
Government at a Glance is a new, biennial publication of the OECD providing over 30 indicators describing government performance. It compares the political and institutional frameworks of government across OECD countries, as well as government revenues, expenditures and employment. It also includes indicators describing government policies and practices in integrity, e-government and open government, and introduces several composite indexes summarising key aspects of public management practices in human resource management, budgeting and regulatory management. For each figure, the book provides a dynamic link (StatLink) which directs the user to a web page where the corresponding data are available in Excel® format.
E-Government readiness
A high level of readiness to develop and implement e-government services is a prerequisite for a highperforming and innovative public sector that delivers integrated services, making life easier for citizens and businesses. E-government readiness is therefore a significant indicator of whether a country is prepared to harvest efficiencies gained from ICT-enabled public administrations.
