Experience 2: [tiki-download_file.php?fileId=34|E-consultation – Gimmick or Good Practice?] by Stephen Hilton
Local Authorities, public sector agencies and voluntary and community sector partners are increasingly using e-enabled approaches to support their consultation work. But just how effective are these approaches and what can be done to ensure that e-consultation does not become just another ‘flash in the pan’. This presentation will draw on Bristol City Council’s experience of running e-consultations over the last five years and on themes emerging from the evaluation of the [http://www.e-democracy.gov.uk Local eDemocracy] National Project, which Bristol led.
Stephen Hilton has been Bristol City Council’s Corporate Consultation Manager since 1999. During this time he has established the Corporate [http://www.bristol-city.gov.uk/consultation Consultation Team’s] reputation as an (award winning) innovator and as a lead council in the area of e-consultation, most recently illustrated by the team’s successful bid for round two e-innovations funding to e-enable community campaigns. Stephen’s interest in e-consultation led to the opportunity to coordinate the international, on-line e-moderators course offered by the Hansard Society also an invite to join the board of the Local eDemocracy National Project. In the latter role, Stephen has piloted several new approaches to e-consultation, including [http://www.bristol-city.gov.uk/epetitions e-petitions] and an on-line citywide citizens panel called [http://www.askbristol.com/ AskBristol]. He has also been responsible for leading the project’s major programme of research and evaluation

Experience 3: [tiki-download_file.php?fileId=47|5 years of on-line consultation with young people in Scotland] by Ella Smith
Ella has been working with the [http://www.teledemocracy.org/ International Teledemocracy Centre], at [http://www.napier.ac.uk/ Napier University], Edinburgh since 2001 on a variety of e-democracy projects, including e-consultations, e-petitioning and e-voting. The International Teledemocracy Centre is a research department within Napier University in Edinburgh. ITC ran its first e-consultation in 2000, for the Scottish Executive. Since then they have worked on a variety of e-democracy and e-government projects, including research into ways to tailor or improve e-consultations for specific groups or purposes.
Ella’s main research project is a participatory design project with a youth parliament for the Highland region of Scotland, developing their e-democracy website. This includes an online policy debating forum and elected members’ discussion forum. Most of her research is centred on using ICT, especially discussion forums, to increase young people’s informed participation. Her talk will focus on this aspect, but also include highlights from some more diverse ITC e-consultation projects.
