53 2. Re-use Practice: * a procedure/institution for challenging the refusal of the data issue will be provided (+15 points); * an obligation to proactively publish data sets will be envisaged in legal acts (sectoral); * national data set catalogue will be created (+20 points); 3. Formats: * legal acts will support/require the publication of data in open formats (sectoral); * national data catalogue will be available in a machine-readable form (+30 points); 4. Fees – data fee matter is under development and it is expected that it will be made pursuant to the conditions of European Parliament and Council Directive 2003/98/EC on the re-use of public sector information (PSI Directive). 5. Exclusive arrangements – maximum achievable rate for Latvia is 50%, which is its current rate. Latvia does not need to take corrective actions, which could provide extra points; 6. Local (municipal) data re-use – municipalities, which are publishing at least 10 sets of data (two municipalities – +40 points, four municipalities – +40 points, six municipalities – +20 points), are evaluated. Currently, the guidelines do not directly support publication of local government data sets, but the issue can be addressed in the context of broader local e-government infrastructure projects if the such will be implemented by municipalities; 7. Events and activities – it is expected to organise at least 4 national/ regional scale events, which would promote open data/information re-use measures (+30 points). Required Actions To support and encourage the transfer of public data for re-use, it is envisaged to support: * development of technical solutions for data preparation and publication in a publicly accessible, transparent, harmonised and automatically processable form, in the same time ensuring data protection of natural persons; * the development of required shared ICT infrastructure for the delivering data stored in state register for the re-use; * the development of a single, centralised data catalogue – data structures and interfaces has to be described by the same form and should be available in the centralised catalogue; * the development of centralised data distribution solution, anticipating also a possibility of a decentralised solution if it results from considerations of usefulness; * support the actions necessary to ensure the functionality of the data sources for delivering the data contained in these sources for re-use and for changing into form valid for re-use, including support of anonymisation measures; * the necessary policy development and regulatory framework implementation are provided for parallel solutions: - takeover of European Parliament and Council Directive 2003/98/EC on the re-use of public sector information (PSI Directive), including implementation of fee and licensing regulatory conditions, for example, as requirements for licensing are set in the field of geospatial information; information_society_development_guidelines_2014_2020.docx; Information Society Development Guidelines 2014-2020
