The South Australian Government goes on to explain what benefit social media can be:

SOCIAL MEDIA CAN:
• increase citizens’ access to government
• increase government’s access to audiences and improve the accessibility of government communication
• enable government to be more active in its relationships with citizens, partners and stakeholders
• offer greater scope to adjust or refocus communications quickly, where necessary
• increase the level of trust in government
• provide additional communication channels in times of emergency
• reach specific audiences on specific issues.

The report goes into much detail – have a read.
