3. RELATED TO THE DIGITAL ECONOMY ROADMAP Projects under the Digital Economy Roadmap are broken down into six Areas, with short- and longer-term actions specified. Many of these actions are relevant to the development of e-commerce as enabling actions or because they are directly focused on e-commerce. Actions from the Roadmap are reviewed by Area identifying those that are particularly relevant and how they are relevant. 3.1 Areas 1.1/1.2 Digital Transformation and Digital Trade Action 1.1.1: MOC to design its policies to achieve digital trade and e-commerce.

In the first instance, stakeholders would have the choice between undertaking the transactions physically in the traditional manner or undertaking them online, but as availability of devices and awareness and skills improved, online transactions would be favoured. Ultimately, online transactions would replace physical transactions wherever feasible, with support provided locally for those unable to carry out online transactions. The migration to online transactions would ultimately reduce costs and improve accuracy of data held, since there would be fewer transcription errors between paper forms and computer systems. The following actions from the Digital Economy Roadmap would enable this transformation.  Action 2.1.1: Implement the Government’s Digital Citizen Engagement Platform which connects the private and public for coordination the national construction. 62
