The entire business of the Cabinet can be conducted using the e-Cabinet, a powerful tool that the State government plans to use to streamline its decision-making process.

Implemented by the Information Technology and Communication Department, the solution lets ministers prepare for Cabinet meetings, conduct them and review minutes without paper.

The e-Cabinet solution gives remote access for viewing Cabinet notes and circulating them well in advance for proper analysis and feedback.

“The system is a multi-user secure solution that keeps relevant information organised and updated in real time, giving ministers a clear overview of each item under discussion,” Wangmu said.
