SURVEY: Online Government Consultation

CITIZEN SATISFACTION SURVEY

Have you taken part in some form of online consultation by federal or state government in Australia, or provided online comment to federal or state government, in the past 12 months?

If so, we would like your feedback and comments – confidentially, of course.
(By online consultation, we mean citizens seeking or providing information or
feedback online
through government Web sites, blogs or social networks,
but not including accessing application forms or services.)

The following survey is conducted independently of any government body
by Open Forum in conjunction with the University of Technology Sydney.
Your name will not be used in any way and you will not be targeted
with any commercial offers as a result of completing this survey.
