'Findings of the report have highlighted the scale of positive interaction of teamworks in government entities with the two year grace period set out by Vice President to make the transition towards m-government, which was crowned yesterday by HH's announcement of excellent results that reflected the scale of progress in e-services the federal government is providing to clients as part of the government modernisation initiative,' Al Mansouri said in a statement following the release of the final report on m-government.

Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, at a meeting with government officials yesterday, viewed the report about the results of the transition to m-Government.

'A delivery rate of 96.3 percent in transition to smart services in 337 key federal departments providing services on a daily basis to customers at the end of the two-year timeline set for shifting to m-Government and m-Services is a great achievement if we look at the given grace period. This has proved that the UAE people have lived up to the leadership's expectations and trust and that they are capable of keeping up with the pace of the leadership's prudent vision, which has turned the UAE into a role model when it comes to progress and development,' he noted.

'Today, we reaffirm anew that we all stand united behind our wise leadership's ambitious vision to reduce the number of clients in government services' centres by 80 percent through 2018, a target that we will strive to reach as part of the commitment to instructions given by HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid and out of belief in advanced methodology in government work, based on quality and excellence,' he concluded.
