 After consultation with state, federal, and local government agencies together with the private sector, GILF has recommended that State Government agencies move to an information licensing framework based on Creative Commons for information that carries no concerns relating to privacy, confidentiality or other legal or policy constraints.  In the project’s [http://www.qsic.qld.gov.au/QSIC/QSIC.nsf/CPByUNID/BFDC06236FADB6814A25727B0013C7EE Stage 2 Report] produced in 2006, titled  [http://www.qsic.qld.gov.au/QSIC/QSIC.nsf/0/F82522D9F23F6F1C4A2572EA007D57A6/$FILE/Stage%202%20Final%20Report%20-%20PDF%20Format.pdf?openelement ''Government Information and Open Content Licensing: An Access and Use Strategy''], GILF concluded that a significant majority (e.g. 85%) of PSI to be suitable for use with Creative Commons licences.

 The full scope of the GILF project covers policy, technology and law (e.g. licensing).  The project is ongoing, and trials are currently underway relating to OCL, together with collaborations with Federal Government agencies also considering the potential application of CC licences to a significant proportion of their data and information.  Stage 3 of the project specifically aims to test CC licences in multi-agency and whole-of-Government arrangements.  GILF also has international connections with the UK and EU.

 :‘Government holds major repositories of public sector information. Greater access to and  reuse will facilitate better decision making generally by the public sector, the private sector, Including the business community.  Increased access and rights of re-use provided under the GILF project if implemented will also assist in promoting economic activity in the private sector. Social, culture, educational and environmental benefits will also be realised with the greater access to and re-use of public sector information facilitated under the GILF project which includes use of CC licences for the significant majority of public sector information. More limiting licences will need to be used where restrictive issues such as privacy, statutory constraints and other confidentiality obligations are present.’  Neale Hooper

-GILF operates as a project of the Office of Economic and Statistical Research (OESR), being the Office of the Queensland State Government Statistician within the Queensland Treasury.  In order to perform the statutory functions of the State Government Statistician, OESR must be able to secure efficient and effective access to, as well as the rights to reuse, PSI located across all State Government departments and agencies, in addition to other relevant information external to the Queensland Government.  With this objective in mind, OESR, as part of GILF, has assessed the applicability of the Creative Commons licensing scheme for PSI, concurrently ensuring that proper protections are in place to protect individuals’ privacy, and to respect the confidentiality of information, whether commercial-in-confidence or owing to statutory constraints or other restrictive considerations.

 Creative Commons licences facilitate open access to and re-use of PSI whilst ensuring attribution of State copyright ownership of information, protection of the IP of the State, and the significant limitation of any potential legal liability for the State in making such information available on line. The value or potential of PSI lies in its maximum reuse and CC licences facilitate such re-use.
