New Polish e-proof. The failure of the state or a great leap forward? – Forsal.pl

Such a history of failures, problems, scandals and strange coincidences not have written any screenwriter. So when I hear about another approach to create a modern identity card from the so-called. electronic layer, I do not feel much enthusiasm. You do not impress me spewed once again ensure that, thanks to e-proof of the citizens will have access to e-government services, so that in addition the state a lot of saves on maintenance of officials.

I do not feel enthusiasm, although this time the e-proof not only convince politicians and officials. Because even the experts believe that the operation this time has a chance to be successful. But before that happens, one thing is certain: there is still a source of confusion, jostling for influence and fight for the money.

A.D. 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2015,

It is difficult to count, which is already the deadline for implementation of evidence from the chip. It all began so innocently. Poland to the pack of countries that have announced the introduction of ultra-modern – at least at that time – methods of identification of citizens joined already in 2008.

It was then, just before the entry into a new, very generous for Polish EU financial perspective, it was announced that one of the most important projects is the introduction of new evidence, and even more – the whole program “pl.ID-Polish ID card”. “The project will be implemented pl.ID electronic identification authentication function in the IT systems of public sector entities. Will be carried out as reconstruction, modernization and integration of existing state registers and computerization of civil registry offices “- reported in 2009. Ministry of Interior. Translated Polish meant: we give you, dear citizens, new evidence, which will have built-in electronic chip. In it you will be recorded such information that will confirm your identity and to settle on the Internet all matters of administration. What’s more – for this to work, we will order the data collected in registers USC.

The pilot program “pl.ID-Polish ID card” was to be launched as early as 2010., And e -dowody had become commonplace year later. Yes, yes – 5 years ago. But it soon turned out that the campaign exchange of evidence is not as easy as he had expected. Indeed, in 2010. Parliament adopted the act, having opened the way for the introduction of electronic evidence, which was even signed by President Bronislaw Komorowski. But we all know that paper can survive anything. In fact, there was a chance that the project managed to achieve in such haste. They lacked many regulations, which were necessary, and the records state proved to be much more difficult to organize.

The first postponement of the introduction of e-proof was minor: from the beginning of 2011. in July this year. I was connected with the decision of the then Interior Minister Jerzy Miller, the emergence of the producer of the new document is not in the ordinary auction, but in the so-called simplified procedure. competitive dialogue. Acceded to it five companies: Guild, Consortia, DGT, Sygnity, Wasko and Polish Security Printing Works, which is state-owned company specialized in the production of official documents, for many years responsible for the issuing of the ID cards.

Today it seems obvious that the” release “of such an order on the market must have caused a fuss. But then it somehow was not foreseen. I started with. Treasury pressured the Ministry of the Interior, would PWPW address the e-evidence, in turn, each participant of “dialogue” talking to each other and MSW mainly by lawyers before the National Board of Appeal and the courts, making further complaints, questions and appeals from the principles of selection of contractor . It’s no wonder the fever, because it was about a lot of money. Entire campaign exchange of evidence were valued even at 400 million zł.

Surprisingly Parliament in April 2011. Although already shown visuals of new evidence, decided to postpone their introduction in 2013. Moreover, to prevent the troubles associated with the formula of dialogue, the Interior Ministry requested the services of a request for entry so tender. shield anti-corruption. But not much good. When lasted another tug on the choice of the manufacturer, a bomb exploded: corruption in the governing Projects Centre. This little-known unit was responsible for preparing the reform of state registers – including PESEL2 necessary to release new e-evidence, and for the same project pl.ID. – It was a huge bad luck. Because the concept of reforming registers and on the basis of preparation of the modern document allowing to identify the citizen from e-offices was really good. But the cuckoo’s egg in the form of Andrew M. crashed the system – considered the current Deputy Minister of digitization Peter janitor.

The arrest of Andrew M. This was the beginning. Quickly charges were brought against another person, the media revealed more shocking information about the bribes, and politicians demanded the notification to the European Commission about “corruption contamination” projects performed with EU grants and hold certification of the entire “axis” planned to build e-government. – In such an atmosphere I came to this project as the new interior minister. What’s more, it turned out that although the first announcement about working on pl.ID passed just three years, it was not ready for the most important part of the project, which is to improve the functioning of state registers. In this the main, or social security – says Jacek Cichocki, then head of the Interior Ministry. – Remember that these records come from the turn of the 70s and 80s and they were full of holes and errors. It is up to them to supplement and develop the so-called. rules for referral, or ensure that they are with each other worked, you had to start the whole operation – adds Cichocki.

How not to CPI, the COI

the situation with sypiącymi a further large systems (because apart from pl.ID ill has also ePUAP whether eZdrowiu) had to save the newly created Ministry of Administration and Digitization. But it also proved ineffective. And once it was known that the deadline of 2013. Is not sustainable, the project received pl.ID infamous Projects Centre (then already subordinate to the Ministry of administration and digitization) and transferred to a new unit – the Central Office of Information.

And so began a new approach to e-evidence. Tender, who a few years earlier seemed to be the perfect idea began to loosen. Now, more precisely a few weeks ago, during the session of the parliamentary commission of the Interior Maria Sosnowska, director of the Document Personalisation Centre at the Ministry, so that she recalled: “Unfortunately there was a real risk that the Polish identity card beige will be produced by the company? with foreign capital over that? pan’stwo Polish has no supervision. On particu? S’cie in 2012. Bid did ?, oczywis’cie in consultation with the Ministry of Interior, uniewaz˙nic’. “

The decision to cancel the tender for e-evidence not really surprise anyone, but it caused quite a stir decision about the next change in the law on identity cards. This time, not just another announcement, the new date (2015.), But above all it really the whole idea of ​​e-evidence left only a biometric layer, without electronic.

Wait a minute? E-evidence without electronic layer? Yes, although it sounds oddly, just such a decision was made. With the project “pl.ID-Polish ID card” was just pl.ID without a card. – It was not in any way that someone suddenly decided to burying the entire project. Just only in 2012., We approached the matter in a reasonable manner and the implementation of e-evidence looked from the side of what are to be based, or state records, and they were in very bad condition. The decision was made to wait with the introduction of e-evidence until the development of a uniform policy in the field of authentication of citizens – says Roman Kusyk, former deputy director of the department of records of state in the Ministry of Interior from the time Jacek Cichocki and Bartlomiej Sienkiewicz.



e-proof without e

I must admit that in this thinking was a lot of common sense. But what about us, the citizens, are interested in any records? And the problems with them. They were to be after new evidence.

– I was – swears Jacek Cichocki.

– but not electronic.

Former Minister sighs: – no, but remember that pl.ID is not meant to be a project leading to the release of plastic with a chip, only to reform the entire system of registers of citizens and adapt our evidence to the EU requirements. And we did it.

– It was rather a facelift. A new document template, the bigger picture, minor changes.

– At first glance, it looked like a facelift. In fact, the most important was that it introduced new, required by the EU’s security and that finally managed to embrace the mess in the registers. Yes, we departed from the original objectives of the project and we had a lot of przenegocjować with the European Commission, but nevertheless I think we have managed to succeed – provides the former head of the Interior Ministry.

Indeed, after the resignation of a layer electronic evidence must be presented to the EC certification of a new project. What’s more, it spreads its over him generally evil aura. The work of the COI pl.ID so carefully examined the CBA. Corruption is not watched and charges no one has set, but a lot of criticism was. Mainly on the weak oversight of COI; that the body, not having appropriate permissions, getting almost tender another contract from work on pl.ID; that the agreement between the Ministry of Interior and the COI does not protect the interests of MSW hard enough. – There was only because there was no breach of allegations. Surely you can from the legal number of issues better addressed, but chased us time and the need to save the crumbling of the project. And it really managed to do only through the transfer of work to COI – swears Cichocki.

This is what in his eyes is a success in the eyes of the current leadership of the Ministry of digitization has not. Minister Anna Streżyńska, although he is at the initiative of COI has been subjected to the supervision of the ministry, and although the boss of this institution Nicodemus Bończy-Tomaszewski spoke a few months ago with respect, however, at the beginning of this year, unexpectedly dismissed the management of this resort. And it is for pl.ID. From the documents published by MC it indicated that “the Minister is currently deprived of effective surveillance tools (impact) for strategic decisions and individual activities in the field of COI” and “the lack of effective supervision of the COI (…) results mainly negative consequences for the Minister of under the agreement for the implementation of tasks related to the construction of the System of National Registers (SRP) – pl.ID project. “

effect another confusion: at the end of 2015. had a draft report to the European Commission as “lack of an effective”. It’s some kind of ploy to avoid having to give EU money already spent. Promised, however, that e-evidence will appear at a later date – but no later than March 2019 year. Gone but 60 million zł, which was found to be contaminated corruption of the times “infoafery.”

former COI chief weapons that subordinate institution has done everything that has been written in the feasibility study and the agreement with the Ministry of Interior. – It’s not just that all commissioned work has been delivered and accepted. The main thing that Poland has established the System of National Registers, which has become the digital heart of the state. He integrated in one base and gave access to data from anywhere. This allows us for example. Get evidence in any office, and service do not get an update every 2 weeks, only once. Stratified by decades of data errors are corrected, the records are secure, also managed to build a foundation for the development of e-services. This process began by creating a service Obywatel.gov.pl, which already uses half a million people a month – provides Nikodem Bończa-Tomaszewski.

A can mID?

If you’re wondering, dear readers, what for so lengthy (but trust me, it really could only cursory reminder) describe the history of the evidence, which they have never received, then the answer is simple: once again we heard he was going to receive them.

the government just revealed details of the plan “From Polish paper to digital, “and in the center of the announced revolution is again good old e-proof. I want to appear at any moment. In 2017., In addition to plastic eID, or a document with a chip on the electronic layer, is also available MID or ID card in your smartphone. – Integrated with a credit card, student card or city card, driving license, health insurance or the other all things placed in a mobile phone, which is a good carrier of information – a few days before the vision evoked minister digitization Anna Streżyńska talking about the MID.

How convenient is such a solution, you can see after a visit to Estonia. The citizens of this country have evidence in smartphones. – Just go to the app, log in and you have access not only to my bank account, because it’s using the following confirmation digital identity, but also for dozens of e-services. And I can remotely, eg. From Polish, see the electronic journal, or my children today are well-behaved in school, settle taxes or subscribe to a doctor – he told me a few weeks ago prof. Linnar Viiki, one of the co-founders of the Estonian e-government project.

Except that the Estonian model of evidence, although impressive, is not yet a chance to replace the traditional “plastic” – if only because, it does not meet one of the basic functions, ie travel document. But the same eID, though less spectacular, if he finally appears in our broader formula – as a card access to health care or driving license – it will be a big jump in the construction of practical and useful e-government. – This year, that it may seem a short period, it is the most realistic date. We have a ready-made records, we have the technology, the law on documents written in the MIA relieve us to organize long-term and difficult tender, for it is almost clear that the production of evidence will be responsible PWPW. The fundamental issue is now ET, what exactly is to be found in the electronic layer that will be this functionality, because they will determine whether the e-evidence will be facilitated – says Minister janitor.

– on this project pregnancy some fate or someone threw him a bad spell. Exactly 10 years ago, I worked in a team implementing biometric passports. It was also innovative for that time solution, and somehow everything without fuss, without charge, without moving the deadlines to implement – throws up his hands Bartholomew Klinger, co-author of the report on computerization of the state in the years 2004-2015, prepared for the current Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Jaroslaw Zielinski. – Besides, if the evidence, when it finally appears, will now be such a great leap of civilization? A few years ago, yes. But now? – Wonders.

– What do you will be successful? That will at all?

– Rather that a citizen at least once a month, will use them for a particular service.
