[kictanet] harmonization policy for government ICT projects?

[saidimu apale]

The Ministry of Lands is going hi-tech
(http://www.nationmedia.com/dailynation/nmgcontententry.asp?category_id=1&newsid=127900),
so is/was the Immigration Ministry, the Ports Authority with its
failed/failing KWATOS system, the KRA... etc.

Is there a gov't policy to guide Ministries or gov't agencies on
implementation of such complex systems? A set of
guidelines/best-practices? Minimum standards on care and retention of
Kenyans' personal information?

Most of those systems have a basic set of identical data (Kenyans'
personal information: name, ID, etc): any guidelines on how the
systems should inter-operate? In case of conflicting personal data,
which of these systems is "official"?

Apologies if this was discussed/settled earlier.
