Goals and results

The expert group is tasked with:

- increasing the efficiency of public administration by monitoring the cross-administrative overview of information management and by identifying key needs for coordination;

- compiling and evaluating shared practices in order to promote interoperability in public administration;

- supporting the Ministry of Finance in maintaining and further developing the information management map of public administration referred to section 6 of the Act on Information Management in Public Administration (906/2019) and in using the map in impact assessments of administrative reforms;

- supporting the ministries in drafting the general strategies to promote the interoperability of shared information pools laid down in in section 6 of the Act on Information Management in Public Administration (906/2019) and in coordinating cooperation in the further development of the general strategies;

- processing and assessing the impact of key development plans, measures and legislative proposals that affect information management in public administration, the utilisation of data and the promotion of the movement of data;

- monitoring information policy and the international information management field, compiling a shared situation picture and monitoring the implementation of key measures and recommendations.

In order to promote the effectiveness of cooperation, the expert group will interact with various expert networks and ecosystems as necessary. The group may initiate the reports and studies and working group activities it deems necessary for the purposes of its tasks.

Starting points

Section 7 of the Act on Information Management in Public Administration (906/2019) tasks the Ministry of Finance with ensuring that cooperation practices and procedures for authorities operating in government agencies and public bodies and the authorities of wellbeing services counties, joint county authorities for wellbeing services and municipalities have been arranged for the coordination of the cooperation relating to information management in public administration and the production of information and communication technical services. The Act contains no separate provisions on how this cooperation should be organised, and the Ministry of Finance can establish a structure for cooperation as it sees fit.

In 2020, the Ministry of Finance appointed four cooperation groups by virtue of the Act on Information Management in Public Administration. These cooperation groups monitored the development of digitalisation and information management in public administration and assessed the impact of planned changes to tasks, services and information systems of public administration on the activities of public authorities. The terms of most of the groups ended on 31 December 2023. The objective of the preparation of the reappointment of cooperation structures was to create an approach that is suited to the current operating environment and that appropriately enables stakeholder participation. The approach also takes into account the Coordination Group for Digitalisation appointed by the Ministry of Transport and Communications on 26 October 2023.
