New information in appeal on open health data

page_amanda's bookmarks 2015-12-17

Summary:

"On October 30, the district court of Amsterdam ruled that the Netherlands Health Authority could keep secret all information related to declared health costs and tariffs of health products. The court upheld the decision made by the Netherlands Health Authority in the FOIA request by Open State Foundation but new information gathered during research makes an appeal to the Council of State necessary. Open State Foundation found not only that data on health costs, including prizes per health provider were earlier published on a government-owned website. Also in 2005 an earlier FOIA request was honoured within a week."
