I have voted in favour of the report on the
Europe 2002 action plan. These reports formalise the principles laid down at successive European Councils for ‘an information society for all’. The current potential for telematic transfer and access provided by the Internet, forces us to march in step with progress. The same applies to consolidating democracy and the principles of the rule of law.
I agree with the rapporteur when he suggests that public authorities should act as a driving force in developing new content services, encouraging the re-use of the information they have and making marginal charges for this. The profusion of information held by States should be accessible to everyone, with the proper safeguards for information that is of strategic importance or in the national interest and in line with the rules of the prevailing culture.
This directive does not seek to harmonise the Member States’ systems, or access criteria that vary from country to country with regard to information that is universally accessible and information that is not. This matter should remain within the sphere of each Member State because it is dependent on the specific context of that country. What seems obvious to even the simplest mind, however, is that we must promote the sharing of information at European level and the establishment of conditions of access to this information as well as rules on charging."@en1
