BERLIN. The decision of the "Commission for the use of new information and communication technologies and communication media" (ICT) of the German Parliament Members of the FDP parliamentary group explained in the Study Commission on "Internet and digital society" Jimmy SCHULZ, Manuel Hoeferlin and Sebastian BLUMENTHAL:
We keep what we promised: we focus on the knowledge and participation of the Internet community in the political process. Therefore we invite the community, all in the Bundestag represented groups and members of the Inquiry Commission, together with us to use the participatory tool adhocracy "and to develop. We want the public participation tool on an open platform for all under the domain www.demokratie.de make available and adapt it to the workflow in the web of inquiry.
The Internet community has from the beginning made clear its claim to want to constructively participate in the work of the Study Commission, now we take them at their word and make adhocracy with the reality test. In the Internet community, there are a lot of creativity and extraordinary dedication. This commitment the so-called "18 experts" we want to involve particularly true in our work. Only together can the evidence be provided that a citizen participation format can constitute a useful addition to the Bundestag's parliamentary work.
The use of the Internet in adhocracy inquiry is not appropriate at this time. In the ICT Commission agreed therefore an evaluation phase. Although the online feedback from consultations and panel discussions on the Study Commission is extremely high, this interest would not result in the same amount in contributions to online forums. 80,000 euros, the introduction after cost estimates of the federal administration would justify the use is currently unknown. The soil is not yet ordered. This will be our task. We want to bring together the Internet community this tool to the requirements and step up cooperation with the Internet community dialogue.
There are now very good collaborative formats that allow citizens to make their expertise available to members, but also vice versa, to discuss contributions from the parliament with the interested public. Delivers on our promise to tread new ground with this inquiry and the public even more content in the work the Commission to participate.
By using this format in the parliamentary democracy is not endangered. Formats such as "adhocracy" Rather, a low threshold ensures that incorporate only contributions that reach a certain quorum, even with the work of the Commission. Simultaneously, the work of the Inquiry Secretariat is relieved because the Internet community agreed in a preliminary process on key areas of discussion and vote on it. The final decision, however, which texts are discussed at the Commission meeting, the members of the Study.
