I propose that all data paid for through public funds be made
available for public use unless the government agency can provide a
valid reason for keeping the data secret.

I'll use
http://consumer.govmu.org/English//DOCUMENTS/PO%20CHART_FEB_2015.PDF
as an example. The data would be published in a CSV format.
Please see
http://statsmauritius.govmu.org/English/Publications/Pages/Crime-Year-2013.aspx
You would have access to data which would allow you to find out the
crime rate in your area, road traffic contraventions in your area,
etc. You would have access to the health and safety records so that
you can process that data and find out whether it is safe to buy from
that person/company. You would have access to census data and
climate data, etc.

S. Moonesamy
