Panelists also identified and discussed the costs of implementation, the potential for 

political impact (both good and bad), social economic impact as well as the recognition that 

some administrative procedures and regulations may need to be changed and or modified. One 

example cited, was the need to accept digital signatures.  

The panel urged that more be done by way of research, cataloging best practices, and the 

further sharing of information, review of both social media polices and technology, and finally, 

professional development and training at all levels of government.
