Subject: Productivity Commission review into open data

Hi all

FYI, announced on Monday. I suspect there might be one or two folks on this list who care enough to make a submission… :)

http://www.pc.gov.au/inquiries/current/data-access

“The Commission is required to:

-          look at the benefits and costs of making public and private datasets more available

-          examine options for collection, sharing and release of data

-          identify ways consumers can use and benefit from access to data, particularly data about themselves

-          consider how to preserve individual privacy and control over data use.”

The Terms of Reference are there, an Issues Paper is due soon.

Cheers,

Markus
