An evolution of the culture within the public sector towards supporting Gov 2.0 has made steady ground since the declaration of open government in July, explains Gov 2.0 advocate, Craig Thomler.

Thomler, Online Communications Director at the Department of Health and Ageing told CeBIT Australia yesterday that Australia's governance structures tend to have an aversion to risk-taking.
“The legislative governance and procedural requirements that governments in Australia have, leads to a tendency towards conservative and risk-adverse public sector practices”
“Legislation tends to be biased towards the existing technology at the time of writing and can take time to adjust or reinterpret in light of new technologies, cultural practices and processes” he added.
