Meaningful Consultation This is not

There can be no more devastating criticism levelled against a consultation process than the complaint; “Nothing I did made the slightest difference!” Enhancing Public Consultation in the 21 st Century

Cabinet Directive on Regulatory Management Create accessible, understandable, and responsive regulation through engagement, transparency, accountability, and public scrutiny;

“At its heart, meaningful consultation is about interactive, two-way communication and dialogue. “Such consultation is undertaken to seek information, advice and/or informed opinion for consideration prior to decision making.”

What is Meaningful Consultation? Consultation that is not “meaningful consultation” is not actually consultation at all. “Meaningful consultation” reflects the following fundamental principles: Two-way meaningful dialogue Stakeholders have a realistic opportunity to affect outcomes Takes place prior to decision-making Obligation to ensure all points of view are represented.

Stakeholders are as varied as the issues. Consultation is inclusive not exclusive Environment of respect May be about “big ideas” or specific proposals Iterative process Not simply the provision of information Clearly identify problem or issue Demonstrate that proposal is the best solution What is Meaningful Consultation?

Evidence-based Opportunity to challenge assumptions on which proposals are based Forms of input should not be limited Conducted by government or its agents Well documented Consensus-based results Many mechanisms going by different names ( ie. deliberative democracy, open space technology) What is Meaningful Consultation?

Deeply rooted in democratic tradition Takes the “temperature” of the community Ground-truth assumptions Test alternate scenarios Is there a “better mousetrap” Consensus-based results demonstrate credibility and accountability Stakeholders become “invested” Why Consult?
