The UK government is planning to deliver its UK Online portal through digital TV within the next few months.

E-envoy Andrew Pinder has said he is in talks with the UK's major digital TV providers and has created a team within his office to oversee the move.

A service could be launched before the end of spring 2002, according to his March report to the Prime Minister.

The E-envoy's office began trialling digital TV delivery with Sky last December.

In addition to digital TV, the government also hopes to provide access to UK Online content through public kiosks and mobile phones.
