📋 Tender Overview
The working group's proposal for a new recommendation on updating the Government Communications Recommendation has been completed. The proposal can be commented on in the Statement Service until 28.6.2023.
The previous central government communications recommendation was issued in 2016. The rapid change in the communications environment and the experiences gained from crises in recent years have given reason to update the old recommendation.
The scope of the work takes into account that the reform of the Act on the Openness of Government Activities is ongoing. The Communications Recommendation will be reviewed more extensively than this update once the new Act on the Openness of Government Activities has entered into force.
The Government Communications Recommendation describes the change in the communications environment and its impacts, outlines the values guiding communications and their significance, and explains the operating model for central government communications. The recommendation serves as a basis for central government organisations' own communication strategies and other communication guidelines for putting the principles described in the recommendation into practice.
