In view of our meeting on Wednesday, I would like to share a draft paper I've been working on.

It focuses on the European Commission's e-consultations implemented through the"Have Your Say" portal.

The topic converges with my PhD, which studies the implementation of e-participation by European institutions throughout the policymaking process.

It is a work in progress, based on an extensive data set, so I am still polishing the data analysis, and the conclusions might be a bit fuzzy. In this endeavour, I would very much appreciate your feedback on any aspects, and in particular on:

• Clarity of the arguments
• Data presentation and interpretation
• Any striking findings I might have omitted/not thought about
• Other promising ideas to consider for further research

For now, I plan to present the article at a conference on e-governance and e-democracy. I would very much welcome suggestions on journals that might be interested in it.

I can happily introduce it briefly during the meeting if you don't have time to go through it.

Thank you very much in advance, and I look forward to the discussion.

Have a good weekend,
Cătălina
