Adam wins overall Best MP’s website at British Computer Society Awards.
7th November 2007
Local MP Adam Price has beaten off strong competition throughout Britain to win the British Computer Society’s Best MP’s Website Award. The Carmarthenshire MP was presented with the national award based on design, engagement and accessibility.
Adam Price MP said:
“I am delighted to have won this. I am very proud that the efforts we have made to ensure that I am accessible to my constituents have been recognised. In today’s digital age people want to be able to raise their concerns in many different ways. We have two full time offices that anyone can just pop in or phone and the next step was to allow people to use the internet. It has been a fantastic way of interacting with people and has really helped me tackle some of the major issues in Carmarthenshire.”
BCS chief executive David Clarke added:
“IT now offers the world of politics the ability to present itself in a more exciting and communicative form. Today’s computer technology enables ministers and MPs to engage with constituents and voters in a two-way dialogue that enhances the democratic process.”
