Mandate that the top 100 ideas at a minimum are forwarded to the involved agency executive for review and comment.
There are an extensive amount of valuable ideas here that may not score number one. It would be tremendous waste of effort if those below number one were not reviewed for consideration. We all have an idea or two here, we all put effort into this, what a waste if the ideas were simply deleted.
Mandate that they are reviewed and not thrown out with the trash.
YES !

This program, while a great idea, needs to be regulated in a manner that will be the most effective to the government. I hope the initiators have a terrific plan to back this!
Great idea! I would like to add my two cents on an expansion of it...
If the idea is not to be implemented the Agency/Department Executive should be required to respond to the idea with a justification for why it was not implemented.
I linked to this from my idea which is at the top.
I think once your idea has a lot of votes it does have an advantage since it stands out at the top.
I hope they do review all of these ideas, however, I doubt they will ever respond to each one.
Last year, 20 ideas were used in the 2011 budget.
"Last year, 20 ideas were used in the 2011 budget."
...and we're still waiting for that budget to pass. Hopefully those considerations will also be included in FY 2012, since we are more than half-way through FY 2011 already.
