SUPPLY/SERVICES--NOVA SCOTIA ON THE INTERNET ------------------------------------------------------------ The Nova Scotia government's site on the Internet has been improved, with a new home page, more information available and expanded links to related sites, Supply and Services Minister Gerald O'Malley announced today. "With the Internet doubling in size every six months, it is important to have a quality site, with good information, useful links, and an attractive home page," Mr. O'Malley said. "We set out this fall to improve our presence on the Internet. The new page went on-line in September, and web site developers in departments throughout government have been adding information since then." From the Nova Scotia site, web surfers around the world can obtain a wealth of information about the province. "You can visit Keltic Lodge and our other provincial resorts, learn about Nova Scotia weather, read government documents, or find out about doing business in Nova Scotia," the minister said. There are also links to related sites, such as Symphony Nova Scotia, the City of Halifax, and Nova Scotia-related federal government web sites, including national parks in Nova Scotia. Many government departments are now represented on the site, and others are coming on as resources allow. "A good web site is never finished, it is always under construction," the minister said. "Web site developers will be adding and updating information for as long as there is a government site. We will never reach the point where we will say it's finished." The government web site was designed and is maintained by the Department of Supply and Services.
