Paragraph 10 a (new)
10a. Takes the view that publishing Union data makes innovations possible, brings about considerable overall economic benefits, and makes administrations more efficient; calls for the European Ombudsman’s data to be made permanently available in machine- readable form, without charge, so as to make them freely reusable; is of the opinion that the data must not be constrained because of platform- or system-specific architecture and that the data format must be based on widely used and freely accessible standards and be supported and maintained by organisations which are independent of manufacturers; stresses that full documentation relating to format and all extensions must be made freely available; (Justification: For a modern, transparent administration, the fundamental principle of Open Government Data must apply.)
