Abstract	The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's Computer Utilization Group formed a Policy Panel. Its purpose was to assist its member governments by surveying the state of the art of computers and information utilities, to analyze applications and alternative policies relevant to conditions in member countries, and to make policy recommendations. Part I of this report contains the Panel's recommendations that member countries: 1) identify or establish means of coordinating research and operational aspects of computer/communications systems; 2) coordinate large scale experimental programs; and 3) identify analytical procedures to determine cost/benefit criteria, user needs, technical standards, and economic factors. Part II consists of a consultant's background report which deals with economic, technical, and organizational issues. It reviews a) the basic concepts of, interaction between, and interdependence of computers and telecommunications, b) the services offered, c) the dangers of manipulation, d) macro-economic and market entry issues, e) economic and political constraints, and f) national programs.
