The politician behind the government's Big Debate project says he's pleased at the response to last night's first public meeting.
Policy and Reform minister Chris Robertshaw and Treasury Minister Eddie Teare outlined to an invited audience, key issues and pressures facing the Island in coming years.
The audience was asked to respond to a series of questions about the future shape of government, using remote electronic devices - so the votes were anonymous.
Mr Robertshaw admits the format may need some tweaking, but believes overall it went pretty well
