ABSTRACT: In spite of the existing government accountability measures, there are still many gaps in living transparency in the bureaucracy. This paper evaluates a new tool - EGovernment in monitoring government, civil sector. The E-government, as defined by the World Bank (2016), refers to the use by government agencies of information technologies that can transform relations with citizens, business, and other arms of government. The meditation of technology affords an increased dissemination of information and democratization of government services, and reduces costs in terms of time, distance and financial expenses. In this manner the E_Government propounds participation, responsiveness, accountability and thereby, an inclusive national development. The more salient aspects of the study cover the assessment of E-Government practices in the country using the criteria set forth by the United Nations (2001) and by a local matrix suggested by Siar (2005). Lastly , evaluation and reccomendation.
