(http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?type=TA&reference=P7-TA-2013-0275&language=IT&ring=A7-2012-0404).
According to the new rules the  public information - except those subjected  to specific limitations (for example, because relating to State security matters) - will be accessible online and private companies will be able to use them to offer new services and applications.
