directory would respond with
the location of one or more da-
ta providers.
The service would then be
required to ask the user for an
explicit request to seek the ev-
idence from the selected data
providers.
If such authorisation is
granted by the user, the service
would then use the eDelivery
system to submit a request for
evidence.
Upon receiving the infor-
mation, the service would be
required to allow the user to
preview the evidence prior to
using this within the proce-
dure.
It has been confirmed that
the CEF eDelivery building
block will be adopted as is in
the SDG technical specifica-
tions. To de-risk the project,
we have immediately set out
to implement this part using
our Cloud-based technologies.
eDelivery uses a decentralised
four-corner model messaging
topology, allowing communi-
cation between different par-
ties without setting up bilateral
channels.
In conclusion, the SDG repre-
sents the biggest attempt made
so far by Europe to achieve
widespread cross-border dig-
ital connectivity and the pro-
ject presents several interest-
ing business-related, legal and
technical challenges.
MITA is very well positioned
to facilitate this transforma-
tional journey in Malta by pro-
viding technical expertise and
building the shared services
required to achieve these ob-
jectives.
"The SDG represents the
biggest attempt made so

digital connectivity and
the project presents several

related, legal and technical
challenges."
