In many Councils Small & Medium-size Business [SMBs] and Small & Medium-size Enterprises 
[SMEs](not-for-profit) comprise more than 95% of the Local Business population and are the 
major Employers and Rate-payers.


In 2001 the Federal Government Department of Employment, Workplace Relations & Small Business 
[DEWRSB] commissioned members of the OIC Local Government Special Interest Group [LZIG] to 
conduct a series of eSurveys with 172 NSW Local Government Councils on "The relevance of XML in
the adoption of On Line Service Delivery by Local Government Agencies".


Since then, XML has enabled eBusiness, eBanking, Workforce Mobility and Home Mobility to change
the way that Local Government can provide Community Services to an increasing population of 
Home Workers


This Webinar will review how the Local Government Management Plans and a common Council 
Application framework can assist Local Councils to reduce the costs of IT 
Application development and On-line Delivery Services
