Abstract	E-government development in Hungary has been driven by the overarching national goal to integrate Hungary in the European Union. Combined with strong political leadership, these efforts have brought results in a short period of time. The progress made by Hungary has not continued after 2006 compared to the other benchmarked countries. Hungary is experiencing a fragmented e-government leadership, lack of budgetary concepts and tools for evaluating e-government investments, limited systematic monitoring and evaluation, and deficient cross-institutional collaboration frameworks. To increase public sector performance using e-government as a tool, Hungary should establish stable political priorities and strategic frameworks that allow for a focus on medium- to long-term implementation, including setting up a simpler governance structure for e-government. Benefits of e-government investment are assessed. Increased benefits realisation of e-government investments could be achieved by improving the budgetary frameworks using current budgetary limitations as a way to push agencies to re-engineer their business processes and to innovate in order to free up resources. Further e-government collaboration frameworks need to be strengthened. A number of additional initiatives could be considered to exploit economies of scale, for example extending the use of e-government building blocks to local government and the establishment of a shared service centre.
