Agenda for Action

Citation: Information Infrastructure Task Force, National Telecommunications and Information Administration, National Information Infrastructure: Agenda for Action (Sept. 1993).

The Agenda for Action originally identified nine principles that would guide the NII initiative:


 * (1) promote private sector investment;
 * (2) extend universal service &mdash; ensure that information is available to all at affordable prices;
 * (3) promote technological innovation and new applications;
 * (4) promote seamless, interactive, user-driven operation;
 * (5) ensure information security and network reliability;
 * (6) improve management of spectrum;
 * (7) protect intellectual property rights;
 * (8) coordinate with other levels of government and other nations; and
 * (9) provide access to government information and improve procurement.

These nine principles were collapsed into five over time.
