by I was driving into Sydney yesterday listing to Deborah Cameron’s morning show on local ABC. She was interviewing the NSW Planning Minister Kristina Keneally. The Minister clearly committed herself to improved cvommunity engagement and she specifically earmarked online community engagement techniques as playing an important part in the way communities are engaged in the future.
This is a really important endorsement of the power of online engagement and is another illustration of increasing committment to this form of engagement from the NSW Government. Already the Syndey Metro Rail Project and the NSW Premier’s Jobs Summit have used online engagement platforms. Let’s hope this becomes the norm very soon.
I am trying to get a transcript from the ABC and will post it here if I succeed.
