Stop hugging your data Set it free

Government must shift….
… to Wholesale
From Retail…

Why should we free our data?
People have funded the collection of the data, and want/are entitled to access it
Public access improves quality
Marginal cost of distribution is minimal
Agencies do not have the resources or the innovative skills to respond to the variety of needs/uses of the data
Increases economic and public value

How do we set it free?
