[@OKau] Productivity Commission review into open data

Mon Mar 28 07:09:01 UTC 2016

At the very least they probably should be made aware of it. As far as I'm
aware, they're not a data holding/management agency in their own right, nor
do they set policy/guidelines - but their analyses can have an important
influence on policy debates. I'd be surprised if they didn't already have it
on their radar, but .

Cheers,

Markus

Would it be a good idea if the Productivity Commission was on the list of
agencies included in the OGPNAP?

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
