Study to support an Impact Assessment on enhancing the use of data in Europe - Data Governance Act

Description

This study provided input to the impact assessment accompanying the proposal for a Regulation on European data governance (Data Governance Act, adopted on 25 November 2020). The study was divided into four tasks, for each of which the contractor explored the state of play in Europe and determined the impact of a number of possible policy options. The tasks, all of which aim to stimulate the availability of data for use and to strengthen data governance mechanisms in the EU, are as follows: - measures facilitating secondary use of sensitive data held by the public sector which are currently not disclosed by public sector bodies and not covered by the Public Sector Information (PSI)/Open data directive (e.g. health data, statistical microdata, company ownership data, microdata from public transport systems and others); - establishing a certification scheme for data altruism mechanisms (defined as means of making data available (whether anonymised or non-anonymised) without expecting anything (not even services) in exchange); - establishing a European structure for governance aspects of data sharing (through the establishment of metadata standards across or within sectors and including both technical and legal standards); and - establishing a certification framework for data intermediaries (or data marketplaces which help data demand and supply to match through independent platforms).
