Written by: Adel Khelifi on March 16, 2026

The Commission for the Organization of Administration, its Development, Digitization, Governance and the Fight Against Corruption at the Assembly of the People’s Representatives will hold, tomorrow, Friday, February 27, 2026, a hearing with the Minister of Information and Communications Technologies, Sofiene HEMISSI. The objective is to take stock of the progress of digital transformation projects and interoperability services between public structures.

A session focused on digital transformation and online services

According to the information provided, the hearing will address the level of achievement of the digital transformation programs, as well as the development of digital services intended for citizens and institutions. The Commission must also assess the progress of interoperability to ensure a more efficient and secure exchange of data between administrations.

Interoperability: simplifying procedures and transparency

The proceedings should also address the contribution of interoperability services to simplifying administrative procedures, reducing complexities and limiting delays. In this logic, the Commission intends to measure the impact of these devices on strengthening transparency, as a lever in service of good governance and the fight against corruption.

Expectations around coordination between public structures

This hearing takes place in a context where coordination between administrations, the reliable circulation of information, and the security of exchanges are among the main challenges of digitizing public services.

The Friday, February 27, 2026 session should thus help clarify the status of ongoing projects and the priorities to come.
