This commentary provides an expert guide to the Act, giving an authoritative and rigorous overview of its reach and scope. The Data Governance Act (DGA) allows for increased access to data. Specifically it harmonises the conditions for the re-use of public sector data which is subject to certain third-party rights, it establishes a framework for private data sharing services that allows users impart personal data, and it introduces a framework for data sharing for altruistic purposes.
