Open Future response to the public consultation

May 13, 2022

We submit our feedback to the European Commission’s public consultation on the Data Act proposal, in which we generally welcome the proposal’s efforts to broaden access rights to machine-generated data while providing conditions for greater sharing and reuse of data. Our feedback identifies five points for the proposal to improve and deliver the objectives set in the European strategy for data: rules for business-to-government data sharing; review of the sui generis database rights; access right to machine-generated data; rules on interoperability; terminology and regulatory consistency.
