e-Government: e-Envoy unveils Directgov service

The Office of the e-Envoy has unveiled the first stage of the Government’s new online service Directgov. Designed around the needs of the user, Directgov makes it much easier to find and access government information and services electronically.

Directgov brings together information from across many Whitehall departments in one place, making it easier for people to find what they want from government, rather than having to search across several departmental sites. For example, a parent with a young disabled child wanting to send them to the local mainstream school will be able to find out the type and level of support available without having to go to the Department for Education and Skills or Department of Work and Pensions sites.
