Directive on the re-use of public sector information

<p>Directive 2003/98/EC on the re-use of public sector information, known as the PSI Directive, now called the Open Data Directive, is an <a href="/facts/Directive_(European_Union)/KS076mKR">EU directive</a> that stipulates minimum requirements for <a href="/facts/EU_member_states/hsFC1pJH">EU member states</a> regarding making <a href="/facts/Public_sector/bV8gdzPu">public sector</a> information available for re-use. This directive provides a common <a href="/facts/Legal_framework/q6dS3t2d">legislative framework</a> for this area. The Directive is an attempt to remove barriers that hinder the re-use of public sector information throughout the <a href="/facts/European_Union/6GYcR8qM">Union</a>.
</p><p>The PSI Directive was amended again in 2019, becoming the Open Data Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/1024 on open data and the re-use of public sector information), which entered into force on 16 July 2019. It consisted of a revision of the public sector information directive from 2003, which was already previously amended by the directive 2013/37/EU. Member states had until 16 July 2021 to <a href="/facts/Transposition_(law)/RFgMarhP">transpose</a> the new directive into national law.
