Romania: IBM computer population register
artdoc July=1994

The Romanian Interior Ministry is to purchase an IBM computer
system which will be a `national information system'. The system
will be used to manage a countrywide database on population
registration and to administer the use of personal ID cards which
are to be issued to citizens for the purpose of using social
security, health care, education and tax collection. IBM Eastern
Europe said that: `the identification system is based on an idea
originally proposed by the European Community'. The central
system is to be linked to 41 regional offices and 302 local
offices. Balkan News, 17.4.94.
