Elena I. Neaga, Tarek M. Hassan, Chris D. Carter

Abstract


This paper presents the strategy and roadmap for the evolution of a European
legal framework to support the advancement of information and communication technologies
(ICT) based on the research work undertaken within the European funded project LEGAL-IST
(Legal Issues for the Advancement of Information Society Technologies - IST-2-004252-SSA).
The paper describes the legal issues, constraints and barriers to the adoption of Information Society
Technologies (IST) and reports on the research findings of the LEGAL-IST project which led to
policy recommendations based on a roadmap for the provision of harmonised legal support at
European level. It also proposes a set of high priority policy recommendations to be considered by
policy makers of the European Commission and related organisations.
