Hi everyone,
My name is Lizzy Tait, I am a PhD student at the Robert Gordon
University in Aberdeen (Scotland) researching the use of online
consultations in Scottish Local Authorities. I am currently conducting
interviews with representatives from the 32 Scottish Local Authorities
to find out whether or not they are currently using online consultations
and how successful/unsuccessful they have found the initiatives. I am
also trying to find out reasons for not using online consultations
(whether it is technical limitations, organisational barriers, cultural
issues etc) to determine whether there are some circumstances that using
electronic consultation is not appropriate.
I am also interested in finding out about best practice examples from
around the world and so am hoping to find out about interesting
initiatives from this group. If anyone would like to know more about my
research please get in touch.
Cheers
Lizzy
