2. New European judicial
framework for opening access
to and reusing information

New EU strategic context
Digital agenda for Europe
-Strategy for intelligent, sustainable and inclusive
growth in Europe.
-Achieving high levels of employment, moving towards a low carbon
economy, increasing social cohesion and productivity through concrete
actions on a State-wide or Community-wide scale.
-In 1 of the 7 emblematic initiatives for Europe 2020, ICTs play a very
important role in achieving the 2020 objectives.
-Action 3: Opening up public data resources so they can be reused.
-In addition to the economic value, it is worth pointing out more democratic
merits such as promoting transparency and ensuring public authorities can
be held to account for their actions.

Directive 2013/37/EU amending
PSI Directive 2003/98/EC
New European legal framework
-On 26th June 2013, the European Parliament approved
Directive 2013/37/EU of the European Parliament and
the Council (Consolidated Version) which amended
-Directive 2003/98/EC on the reuse of information in
the public sector. It was published in the
Official Journal of the EU on 27 June.
-Member states have 2 years to convey the measure
into their judicial framework.
Changes
Within the pertinent ambit (museums, libraries and archives), conditions (standard and
open formats, licences without conditions), fees (charges can be made if they are
proportional), exclusivity limits, supervision (a report every 3 years) and assessment
(harmonisation guides) of the European Commission.

licences and fees.

Catalunya Dades Online

Catalonia Legal framework
Within the Generalitat of Catalonia this applies to:
-Legal Notice (Licence) which authorises the reuse of all the
contents of Gencat.cat.
-Inventory of all the data. Each department (ministry) draws up an
inventory or catalogue of all their data and appoints a person
responsible for the reuse of, or open access to, data.
-Openly accessible images and videos. The Generalitat has opened
access to images and videos as if they were data (source, not
authorship).
-Linking reuse policies to transparency policies. The Generalitat‘s
transparency website also offers data in an open format (
see some examples).

Catalonia Pending features
These include the following:
-Fees. At the moment, there are none. However, these might be
established, in line with the Directive, but would be limited to the cost of
return on investment or to getting back production costs.
-Impartial authority. The Spanish state will
need to decide who this is.
-Governance in the Spanish state.
How will the reports for
the European Commission
be prepared?
