Modernise data publishing and reuse
The Taskforce found that recent developments on the web have increased the potential for reusing public information to improve public service outcomes and create new businesses. How information is published and licensed for re-use is central to these benefits being realised. Although the core regime for public sector information in the UK works, public information held by for example the police, health bodies and local authorities is often not available. This is bad for democratic expression, the economy and citizen customers. Further reform and better communication to potential reusers would increase the national benefit. |
