4 INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK FOR POLICY IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING 4.1 Introduction B ecause of the multifaceted nature of ICT issues and the factors that impact on them, the implementation of this policy, and the consequent achievement of its goals and objectives will be the responsibility of the entire government at all levels and in all sectors, working in close partnership with the private sector and civil society. There is therefore a need for the active participation and involvement of all individuals and national institutions. There is also a need of a strong commitment on the part of the political leadership of all kinds and at all levels. In order to effectively coordinate and harmonize efforts and activities undertaken by many institutions in different locations, there is a need to put a mechanism in place which will ensure that the policy is updated from time to time and that implementation strategies and plans are drawn and carried out in the most efficient and effective manner. The final goal should be the deployment of ICT in all sectors of the economy and to all communities in Tanzania. __________________________________ Page 23
