You say in your notes (provided at the selection board) that you firmly believe in, for example, the concept of open government. Tell me more about this.
Answer:
Whatever issue you declare you have a particular belief or interest in it is likely to come up as a discussion topic. Make certain you have researched it fully.
You are likely to be asked a relatively open question such as this to begin with. You may then also be asked some quite probing and specific questions. You may be challenged on an opinion or asked to clarify a point you make. For example, you state that a policy of open government is good for encouraging public confidence, how can you be sure of this? Or, can you give any recent examples of voters being influenced in their voting habits by the issue of open government (or any other issue)?
