Thank you.
I view open data as an enabler of things in the economy. The benefits of open data come from people being able to find out how to do things faster, cheaper, or better. The examples that I used in my introduction are, I think, examples that address the “so what?”. The £200 million cash savings found in one drug line in the NHS drugs budget is the basis for a sustainable business.
Proving the approach of taking a data-rich but regulation-light to a market, that's possibly the future of regulation. It gives the regulator better information, but at the same time doesn't increase the burden on business. Again, that has a sustainable model to it. I think at the moment we're just seeing the transition from thinking about getting the data out there through to thinking about the products, the services, the way they get created, and in some cases, the way you support these businesses coming through.
Just because I'm aware there's a regional thing here, we do now have bases in Leeds, Sheffield, and Manchester, as well as Brighton, so we're also thinking about how we take this, not just to the capital city, but around the U.K.
