R.I. (Public) Consultation Guidelines

R.I. (Public) Consultation Guidelines outline how government agencies should involve the public in decision-making processes. They ensure transparency, accountability, and meaningful participation by encouraging agencies to seek input from communities, stakeholders, and the public early and throughout policy development. The guidelines promote respectful, accessible, and inclusive discussions, allowing diverse perspectives to influence outcomes. Ultimately, they aim to foster trust, enhance the quality of decisions, and ensure that policies reflect the needs and concerns of those affected.
