e-Justice Overview

e-Justice primary use cases

Matrimonial matters and parental responsibilityMaintenance ObligationsEuropean Account Preservation Order

facilitation of the resolution of legal issues across national borders

making easier either cross-border court-to-court or cross-border court-to-citizen communications involving electronic signing and secure transmission of electronic documents

eDelivery

Cross border cases for:

e-Health – easier access to health services while abroad

e-Justice – electronic issuing of a claim in a foreign court

e-Procurement – electronic bidding in other EU countries

business lifecycle – online completion of formalities for company setup abroad

and more: e-citizen lifecycle, maritime e-cooperation, e-agriculture

Introduction of Workpackage 3 of eSENS – Governance & Sustainability

What sustainability is to us

10

Long term (10+y) consolidation and maintenance of building blocks.● Building Blocks (BB) lifecycle (assessment, improvement,

operations)● governance (principles, structure & legal form)● financing (rationales & business case)

many external dependencies● developments in the framework of eIDAS Regulation, ● Connecting Europe Facility (CEF)● eGovernment Expert Group.

Sustainable Building Blocks

11

Assessing the sustainability of Building BlocksAssessment framework with 3 main assessment criteria:

● Standardization (technical maturity, openness, IPR, lifecycle management, maintenance, service levels, security)

● Policy Alignment (interoperability, compliance, member states, legal, data protection, applicability, potential)

● Market/business need (business need by users, market support by implementers)

assessment framework building on● CAMSS (Common Assessment Method for Standards and

Specifications) from EC ISA program● ADMS (Asset Description Metadata Scheme)● Specific sustainability requirements from eSENS

To what extent is a European IT governance structure for BB DSIs perceived as necessary?

In which way can your country voice a single coherent position in eGovernment cross-border and cross-domain interoperability functions/activities?

What are the preferred features of a governance structure, for now and in the long term?

Which principles should be preferred when a function/activity will be governed at European level?

1. Active involvement of MS in the process; 2. Clarity of responsibility and accountability for different tasks between the

stakeholders;3. Keeping in mind the construction of a European interoperability ecosystem; 4. Ease of use by the administrations and businesses.

What to jointly govern?

more efficient alignment efforts

aim of the ecosystem is to provide cross-domain services, enabled by BBs.

Requirements for sustainabilityIn order to further lock in the benefits of addressing the critical success factors and to make it sustainable, the processes and procedures that enable the governance and linked implementation should ensure the following: That the fundamental principles of the EU mandate are respected: Conferral, Subsidiarity and Proportionality; That core value of the EU are respected in both the approach to governance and the resulting solutions: Openness, transparency and inclusiveness; That the stakeholder representation and taking into consideration of their needs is locked in.;That the governance decisions are implemented.

Deloitte report on Cross-Border Services

Confirms both principles AND the use of BOMOS

Krechmer Criteria on Openness

● Open Meeting: All stakeholders can participate in the development process ● Consensus: All interests were discussed and agreement reached no domination. ● Due Process: Balloting and an appeals procedure may be used for the definitive solution. ● Open IPR: IPR (intellectual propertyrights) in relation to the standard are available for those

using it. ● One World: Univocal definition of the standard, worldwide ● Open Change: All changes are proposed and agreed in a forum supporting the five rights

above. ● Open Documentation: Draft documents of the committee or other consultative groups and

completed documents about the standard are readily available for implementation and use ● Open Interface: An open interface supports migration and makes it possible to market

private label versions. The standardized interfaces are not hidden or controlled. ● Open use: There are objective conformity checks and mechanisms for implementation

testing and user evaluation. ● Continuity in Support: Standards are supported until use of the standard ceases, instead of

support until the suppliers lose interest

BOMOS made it practical

BOMOS was not intended for:

● an ecosystem of organisations – coordination more than governance

● SBB’s → Open Peppol did a check● Detailed RFC processes → maybe ITIL??

– (even) more (& good) service provisioning framework, less inter-organisation governance

– close to no business development/market adoption focus

● For every situation → translation for each context– trade-off between flexibility (~shopping list) and structure

● in general OPENNESS is not garanteed, needs attention through the entire process– what's open: participation? decision making? process? result?

E-SENS Objective in relation to BOMOS

1. Clear and efficient decision-making process● BOMOS2i page: 15 Decision making

2. Involvement LSP’s ● BOMOS2i page: 15 participation

3. Stakeholders involvement● BOMOS2i page 15 stakeholder analysis (NEN)

(new) e-SENS Activity Model

What do you take away from these discussions?

Thank you!

Discussions

● Contribute assessment model (back) to CAMSS● Interesting putting ethics at the heart of design● How to discuss reciprocity in public bodies and with

businesses?

● Want to discuss in particular some of the changes we made to BOMOS?

● How to collaborate with other existing standardisation structures (& their workflow/requirements)

● Should there be a BOMOS-light, with less activities?
