Data standards for ePetitions
2009 October 26
Says it all – this is a golden opportunity to get the groundwork in place for standards that can be applied in England and then across Europe where e-petitioning is adopted – eg using the EuroPetition system.

Andy Gibson is working with Futuregov and Particitech to create a simple set of data standards for all the UK’s local government ePetitions. From next year, it’s probable that all local councils will be required to provide electronic petitioning tools to their citizens, and we want to make sure they all do it the right way, and in a form that means they can all talk to each other.
Andy will be putting out the draft standards via this channel in November for your feedback and amendments
