Hanna Onyshchenko: Within nearest time we should switch to EDMS within the state authorities
In the near future we should switch to an electronic document management system (EDMS) to ensure the needs of government
authorities. Today, March 24, Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine
Hanna Onyshchenko announced during a briefing devoted
to 100 days in office.
According to the Minister, the introduction of EDMS is underway along the
two directions: the first - in the Secretariat of the Cabinet of Ministers in
test mode since February this year, in March there has been launched a complete
cycle of electronic document circulation with use of digital signature
(preliminary consideration, registration, processing by administrative staff
and specialists, tracking, approving, signing). The second direction is
electronic document circulation among the public authorities. According to Hanna
Onyshchenko, certain technical problems exist, but
they are settled in operational working mode.
Moreover, during the briefing the Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers
spoke about the activities in the area of European integration.

“There has been set up a Governmental Office for European Integration
within the Secretariat of the Cabinet of Ministers which throughout a
half-year of work demonstrated an absolute efficiency. Recently, the Office has
published its first report on the implementation of the Association
Agreement. Basing on the Report the Parliamentary Committee of the
Association and the Group of friends of Ukraine of the European Parliament noted
Ukraine's progress in implementation of the Agreement and pursuing the
reforms," the Minister said. Besides, Hanna Onyshchenko informed that the
Government adopts a kind of roadmaps for the implementation of each
particular European directive under the Association Agreement - the so-called
plans of implementation of the EU laws. As of today, over 60 implementation
plans in compliance with 70 EU legislation acts have been approved. Another important direction of activities is upgrading the public
service. According to the Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers, the National
Agency of Ukraine on Civil Service together with the Government has drafted a
new version of the Law of Ukraine "On the Civil Service". "To be brief about the Law - it changes the entire "philosophy"
of the civil service and harmonizes primarily with European values. The draft
law was discussed among the public and a wide range of international experts.
As a result, in my opinion, we have developed a decent document, which we hope
will be supported by the Parliament", said Hanna Onyshchenko. |
