- e-Citizen Charter (e-Citizen Programme)
- The aim of the Dutch e-Government policy is to improve information exchange, service delivery and interactive participation by introducing a new partnership between citizen and government. This is to be achieved by giving more responsibility and choice to citizens. As far as the Dutch cabinet is concerned, the required empowerment is being supported by ICTs. To help citizens in their new role, the e-Citizen Programme has developed an instrument: the so called e-Citizen Charter.

- Cows under the cloud
- ITEurope, 30 September 2010. "Remi Caron's Netherlands company Sparked has developed an innovative new product that helps farmers track the health of its livestock. But he has hit some real problems getting it used elsewhere in Europe because of legal and privacy issues. The basic idea is easy enough..... Sensors are implanted in a cow's ear.
