The Ministry works to ensure New Zealand is one of the best places in the world to do business, and to make a real difference to the country's economic performance. The Government wants to achieve a step-change in sustainable economic growth and this economic transformation agenda provides the impetus for much of the Ministry's work. We have been asked to take a fresh approach and not just build incrementally on old initiatives. This is a big challenge, which our strategy for growth responds to. In developing and implementing policies and services that promote growth, we work across nine portfolio areas and take an integrated approach across a wide range of agencies. Given the diversity of our effort, it's crucial that the Ministry has a sound strategy to prioritise its allocation of resources and expertise. The aim of our strategy is to focus on the things that really matter for growth.

They laid down standards for public enterprises and defined the scope of universal service, inter alia in the area of telecommunications and posts. In order to bring the Polish law in line with the European law in the field of telecommunications the National Regulatory Authority was established in 2000 for the first time.

Transportation and communications are basic necessities of daily life and the foundation of national competitiveness. Taiwan’s transportation and communications have developed to the extent that, in general, all major trunk facilities are in place and the emphasis of construction has gradually evolved from the implementation of massive projects to a more mature concern for service quality. Besides continuing to “fill in the gaps” and reinforce key links in the overall network, in the future we must focus our efforts on coordination and integration of the complementation function of the different transportation systems.
