Asunto: Council of Ministers adopts Royal Decree on re-use of public sector information

Dear all



Today the Council of Ministers has adopted the Royal Decree on re-use of public sector information, for the national public sector.



As you will perhaps remember this Royal Decree underwent a public consultation during November and December 2010.



The final text of the Royal Decree will be published shortly in the Official Gazette. The announcement of its adoption can be accessed at http://www.lamoncloa.gob.es/ConsejodeMinistros/Referencias/_2011/refc20111021.htm#DatosPublicos (in Spanish). We are planning to informally translate the decree into English in the coming weeks.



Please find attached to this email an informal summary in English of the Royal Decree's main elements, which could be summed up as establishing the rule of making public data open and available by default.



I hope this piece of news will be of your interest.



With kindest regards



Jorge Cancio
