 > For open data to promote open government, it needs to operate within a framework of law and regulation that ensures that information is collected, organized and stored and then made public in a timely, accurate and useful form.   The information  must be more than just what government bodies find useful to release, but what is important for the public to know to ensure that those bodies are accountable.
