The law regulating legal framework for re-use of data and documents held by public entities
and public enterprises has been adopted.
In other words, any natural person or entity may submit a request for re-use of documents to
any public entity, which may be submitted in digital or paper format, subject to conditions
concerning the identification of the applicant with name, surname or name of the entity and
correspondence address and the documents requested and the purpose for which they are to
be used.
Public bodies shall process the application and make the documents available to the applicant
within 30 business days of receipt of the application. The deadline may be extended by 20
business days, depending on the difficulty, complexity, volume of the requested documents
and the urgency of the request.
Public sector bodies shall make documents available in any pre-existing format or in any
available language and, if possible and appropriate, by electronic means, in formats that are
open, automatically processable, easily accessible and reusable, together with their metadata.
