The government of Bahrain plans to introduce a mobile application for key services to enable members of the public to register complaints, suggestions and enquiries about government services direct from their mobile phones, Gulf Daily News reported. Plans are under way to develop an application for the national complaints and suggestion system Tawasul, which is currently available online. No date has been announced for the launch. It will allow the public to provide feedback on their experience with 23 ministries and departments.

The eGovernment Authority (eGA) CEO Mohammed Al Qaed said those not happy with government services or unable to get appointments were among those who had expressed concerns online. Complaints registered since summer last year ranged from technical glitches, delays in appointments or responses, and missing, incorrect or out-of-date information. The system has registered 2,729 cases, of which 2,351 were complaints, 187 were suggestions and 191 were enquiries.

He added the system was designed to improve government performance and transparency, based on directives from His Royal Highness Prime Minister Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa to develop a unified electronic system to collect public feedback. The 23 government entities that have subscribed to the system so far include ministries such as Housing, Social Development, Labour, Education, Industry and Commerce and Finance, as well as the Information Affairs Authority and National Health Regulatory Authority.
