nologies, management of information technology

search advances into the information and com-
munications systems of—
(i) the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency; and

tion Officer shall work with the Department of Edu-
cation, other relevant Federal agencies, and other in-
terested persons in the private and nonprofit sectors

ommendations; and

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following:
(1) The use of computers and the Internet is
rapidly transforming societal interactions and the re-
lationships among citizens, private businesses, and
the Government.
(2) The Federal Government has had uneven
success in applying advances in information tech-
nology to enhance Governmental functions and serv-
ices, achieve more efficient performance, and in-
crease access to Government information and citizen
participation in Government.
(3) Most Internet-based services of the Federal
Government are developed and presented separately,
according to the jurisdictional boundaries of an indi-
vidual department or agency, rather than being inte-
grated cooperatively according to function.
(4) Internet-based Government services involv-
ing interagency cooperation are especially difficult to
develop and promote, in part because of a lack of
funding mechanisms to support such interagency co-
operation.
(5) To take full advantage of the improved Gov-
ernment performance that can be achieved through
the use of Internet-based technology requires new
leadership, better organization, improved interagency
collaboration, and more focused oversight of agency
compliance with statutes related to information re-
source management.
(b) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this Act are the fol-
lowing:
(1) To provide effective leadership of Federal
Government efforts to develop and promote elec-
tronic Government services and processes by estab-
lishing a Federal Chief Information Officer within
the Office of Management and Budget.
(2) To establish measures that require using
Internet-based information technology to enhance
citizen access to Government information and serv-
ices, improve Government efficiency and reduce Gov-
ernment operating costs, and increase opportunities
for citizen participation in Government.
(3) To promote interagency collaboration in
providing electronic Government services, where this
collaboration would improve the service to citizens by
integrating related function.
(4) To promote interagency collaboration in the
use of internal electronic Government processes,
where this collaboration would improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of the processes.
