Trans-European networks for the electronic interchange of data between administrations IDA II: guidelines and projects

The European Commission supports the common position. The overall objective of the IDA programme is to provide telematic support to policy implementation and inter-institutional communication, while ensuring technical and economic efficiency.

The Council has also sought to improve transparency and accountability in the implementation of the programme.�
