Hertfordshire Council has pledged to connect the people and improve its services.

Herts Connect, which will give people a single route to finding information and services provided by Hertfordshire County Council, has been approved by councillors. The scheme will create better conditions between the public and the council's departments and services.

Some of the details of the plan include developing Herts Line for people to get information and service by dialling one telephone number, developing Herts Online, the council's Internet service and reviewing all services to look for ways of improvement and saving money.
