Information Technology Year 1982
|
'Information Technology (IT for short) is the fastest-developing area of industrial and business activity in the Western World. Its markets are huge, its applications multitudinous, and its potential for increasing efficiency immense.
'Without doubt it will be the engine of economic growth for at least the rest of the century. Britain's economic prosperity depends on the success with which we manufacture its products and provide and exploit its services.
'This is the message that must be got over to everyone in this country - the general public, school children, as well as industry, trade and commerce.
Kenneth Baker MP, Minister for Information Technology
