TABLE OF CONTENTS
 
The importance of telecommunication as a service industry in itself as well as a critical supportelement for other service industries has been for the last few years and continues to be thesubject of high level policy formulation in practically every country in the world and Seychellesis no exception. This has led to changes such as the separation of telecommunication operationsand regulator, privatization of telecommunication operators and the introduction of competition.Recognizing the importance and the potential of the Information and CommunicationsTechnology (ICT) in the development of a country, the Government, took the initiative toform a National ICT Consultative Committee and tasked the committee with the responsibilityto formulate a National ICT Policy (NICTP). Nevertheless, the publication of the NationalICT policy is the output of the collaborative effort of several people from Government, privatesector and civil society, including members and non-member of the National ICT ConsultativeCommittee. The activities that have led to this publication served to further highlight thevalue of partnership, sharing of information and resources between various stakeholders.The NICTP articulates five areas of focus namely; ICT infrastructure, Legal and RegulatoryFramework, Human Resource Development, ICT Industry and Government. Mindful of thecross-sectoral nature of ICT, it is important to note that these five areas are all integrated andinterdependent.
