(1) Situation concerning regional information plans

An "information plan" is a plan which contains concrete policies for systematic and comprehensive development of regional information networks by local governments. Tables 1 and 2 show the results of research concerning these plans, arranged in chronological order and according to type.

Plans are classified into three types:
