Abstract
This National ICT policy has been formulated after broad-based public consultations in a number
of iterations. It captures the ICT ambitions of our citizens and corporations and creates a
framework for their timely realisation. The policy takes close cognisance of our history, social,
economic and operational environment, legal and regulatory framework, current capacities and
capabilities and existing policies from other arms of government; and develops a carefully thoughtthrough achievable way forward for our country; This policy document is backed by detailed
strategic thinking and planning.
As this policy is progressively implemented and supported by all arms of government, ICTs in
tandem with other government initiatives will create the prosperous, stable, globally competitive
environment that is our joint national aspiration.
