On 13 May 2022, the public consultation on the Data Act closed. The Act aims to ensure proportionate participation in the value of using data between businesses, consumers and public bodies. The Act seeks to facilitate access to data and review the rules on the legal protection of databases, to balance the rights to access data and the incentives to invest in data within the current data protection rules. The Act would provide a framework for the accessing and sharing of data. Specifically, the Act set out under which circumstances data may be used to produce value, with a focus on data access rights.
