Ellen, We use open comment periods as a component of our general policy analysis process. We have found it to be useful and worthwhile for two main reasons. The first is that we regularly receive useful and substantive feedback. The second is that it helps us reach more potential stakeholders.

We didn't feel we could just take comments online and effectively understand the points. We take policies to a variety of advisory committees, and engage in discussion. This works well for us, and it also provides early awareness of the policy for training purposes. On Fri, Oct 3, 2014 at 9:09 A
