Abstract

This chapter draws on prior research and interviews with Election Officers to analyse stages in the policy process to identify variables impacting on the policy’s effectiveness to promote e-democracy. The conclusion recommends measures to address policy weaknesses and the suggestion for future research discusses the need to evaluate Citizenship Education as a strategy to boost civic engagement.
