Another Major Government Computer Project Fails

The Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and Environment has abandoned a computerization project of its documentation and archives. The project had been going on for four years and cost 16.6 million Euro. In recent years there have already been important computerization problems with the tax authorities, the national employees’ insurance office (UWV), the army, the police and the immigration and naturalization service (IND). The Christian Democrats and the Socialist Party are both demanding a Parliamentary investigation of the subject.
