New tools for the reuse of administrative data

The Federal Council wishes to relieve individuals and companies of their administrative burden. To this end, the administration already uses existing information several times, thus reducing duplicate surveys. In 2019, the Federal Council instructed the Federal Statistical Office (FSO) to accelerate the reuse of data. The I14Y interoperability platform, which publicly documents existing data collections and classifications, is central to this. Newly added functions support the cataloguing of datasets. In addition, content can now be downloaded from the platform for reuse.
