Open data – information available for re-use

Open data

The act (2022:818) (in Swedish only) on the public sector making data available for re-use aims to promote the re-use of documents from the public sector. The law was introduced with the aim of implementing EU directive 2019/1024 from 20 June 2019 on open data and the re-use of information from the public sector and replaces the previous PSI law (2010:566).

The Act has no bearing on the principle of public access to official documents.
