It surmises that such technology will benefit the educational system and increase research activity, thereby creating new channels of information access for the public, as long as national policymakers commit themselves to strategies for building education programs that are flexible enough to adapt to changing definitions of information literacy and technological expertise. These programs must not only train students and teachers but extend to citizens at large, providing opportunities for their continuing education. Finland needs to participate in the global electronic library by making more information available in digital format, guaranteeing education and research facilities high-performance computing capacity and reliable network connections, and continuing development of Internet links between schools, businesses, and their communities. Policy issues for the proposed open national information infrastructure are discussed, including the practicality of establishing regional networks and the need to examine questions of copyright, Internet security, and tariffs for online information.

'. For the citizens of such a society to prosper, they must possess a good general education, a wide variety of capabilities to act and solve problems, and the professional compe- tences and skills required by the continuous changes inherent in a working life based on networks. High-quality education and the balanced development of both basic and applied research are pre- requisites for successful innovation. In the information society, knowledge is the key resource.

  • Mapping Smart Cities in the Europe
    DIRECTORATE GENERAL FOR INTERNAL POLICIES POLICY DEPARTMENT A: ECONOMIC AND SCIENTIFIC POLICY Mapping Smart Cities in the EU STUDY Abstract This report was commissioned to provide background information and advice on Smart Cities in the European Union (EU) and to explain how existing mechanisms perform. In exploring this, a working definition of a Smart City is established and the cities fitting this definition across the Member States are mapped. An analysis of the objectives and Europe 2020 targets of Smart City initiatives finds that despite their early stage of development, Smart City objectives should be more explicit, well defined and clearly aligned to city development, innovation plans and Europe 2020 in order to be successful.

    1(12) Luonnos 19.8.2015 Hallituksen esitys eduskunnalle laeiksi kuntarakennelain muuttamisesta sekä kuntajakolain muut- tamisesta ja väliaikaisesta muuttamisesta annetun lain voimaantulosäännöksen 5 momentin ku- moamisesta ESITYKSEN PÄÄASIALLINEN SISÄLTÖ Esityksessä ehdotetaan muutettavaksi kuntarakennelakia. Kuntarakennelaista kumottaisiin säännök- set kuntauudistuksen toteuttamisesta, jotka koskevat muun muassa kuntien velvollisuutta selvittää yhdistymistä, selvitysvelvollisuuden edellytyksiä sekä selvitysten määräaikoja. Kuntien yhdistymi- sen taloudellista tukea koskeviin säännöksiin tehtäisiin edellä mainittujen säännösten kumoamisesta johtuvia muutoksia. Yhdistymisavustusten maksamiseksi ei enää edellytettäisi, että kuntien yhdis- tymisesitys täyttää selvitysalueita ja selvitysten määräaikoja koskevat edellytykset. Koska kuntien velvollisuus selvittää kuntien yhdistymistä lakkaisi, säännökset selvitysavustuksesta kumottaisiin. Lisäksi ehdotetaan kumottavaksi säännös kuntajaon muutoksissa sovellettavasta henkilöstön viiden vuoden irtisanomissuojasta. Irtisanomissuojasäännöstä sovellettaisiin kuitenkin ennen lain voimaan- tuloa voimaan tulleissa kuntien yhdistymisissä. Vuonna 2016 voimaan tulevissa kuntien yhdistymi- sissä kunnat voisivat sopia yhdistymissopimuksen muuttamisesta siten, ettei irtisanomissuojasään- nöstä sovelleta. Lisäksi kumottaisiin kuntajakolain muuttamisesta ja väliaikaisesta muuttamisesta annetun lain voi- maantulosäännöksen momentti, joka koskee tässä esityksessä kumottavaksi ehdotettuja kuntaraken- nelain säännöksiä.
