1	Ministry of Education Culture and Sports	SG for library coordination	PROMOTION OF THE ACCESSIBILITY AND INNOVATION OF ONLINE LIBRARY SERVICES	As described in the document Declaration of IFLA (International Federation of Library Associations and Libraries) on open access – definition of its position and policy: “Libraries play an essential role in the development of open access, through their experience in building infrastructures to create useful and quality information services for the user and ensure long-term access to it.” The development, maintenance and constant updating of both digital content and technological tools effectively allow access to information, give visibility and improve the impact of the investment that the Administration has been making in this area and make this investment profitable thanks to the reuse of content by both citizens and other administrations. The commitment consists in the maintenance and updating of bibliographic databases, digital content and tools to guarantee the operation of information services accessible to all the public without any discrimination and free of charge.
2	Ministry of Education Culture and Sports	National Institute of Performing Arts and Music	TEATROTECA	Teatro.es allows public and free access, not only to a multitude of data and images of documents linked to the scenic event in Spain (photographs, press, magazine articles, posters, hand programs…), but, and in a singular way, to a unique and extremely important fund for its content that integrates thousands of theatrical recordings or associated with the scene (interviews, for example) produced by the technical teams of the INAEM (National Institute of Performing Arts and Music) and of whose set a significant part is already in full development through a public and free documentation service for the users of the CDT.
3	Ministry of Foreign Affairs	Office of Diplomatic Information	DIGITAL DIPLOMACY	Digital diplomacy is a very useful tool in the attention of citizens abroad: campaigns on explanation of vote; use of social networks in major emergencies such as the earthquake in Nepal; extensive monitoring of employment opportunities in the UN and EU, among the contents disseminated through social networks, which also have an important aspect of “listening”. In 2016, phase 2 of this development begins, this time focused on the improvement and reform of the web and according to criteria of open government since it is intended to enhance the most useful information for the citizen. This phase consists of: • Conducting an external audit of all embassy and consulate websites. Done in July 2016. The Audit provides external and expert opinion on the state of management of the websites of embassies and consulates, their degree of accessibility, and the relevance of the contents. • Insertion of a tab of comments on the navigability of this web structure, “Help us to Improve”. This is a clear initiative of citizen participation since it aims to collect comments and problems about what we hang on the websites. It is a permanent user satisfaction survey. No electronic ID will be required to complete the form. • Measurements of visits to the web. They begin in January 2016 and are carried out monthly measurements that provide data on global visits and the most requested information. • Comprehensive reform of the web structure in 2017-18. With the collection of all these data (number of visits, comments from Help us improve, and External Audit), in 2017 it is proposed to initiate a reform of the web that aims to give priority in the visual design and content tree to the most useful information for the citizen, and to the most demanded. This will be the main criterion for the design of the reform of the websites of our embassies and consulates. Another fundamental objective of the reform will be to make it “RWD” or adaptive to all types of terminals, especially mobile devices, to also facilitate access to information for Spaniards in transit or in emergency circumstances.
4	Ministry of Justice	General Secretariat of Justice	PROMOTING OPEN DATA AS AN INSTRUMENT FOR OPEN JUSTICE IN SPAIN	The commitment will be framed in a specific public policy line on Open Justice, which will be included in the National Justice Strategy that the Government of Spain will implement with the support and participation of the political, institutional and professional actors of the country and placing judicial transparency as one of its main axes. It will be structured in 2 lines of action: 1. Open data as an instrument of transparency in the Administration of Justice. The commitment includes taking the initial steps to evolve the current model of judicial statistics to another in which said statistics will be improved in terms of the quality of the data, its obtaining and management. The publication will be made in reusable and friendly formats for easy compression by the citizen. The role of the National Commission of Judicial Statistics will be enhanced and collaboration will be promoted through CTEAJE. 2. Improve the right of access to information of the Justice. The compromise includes streaming access to certain oral hearings and access through the electronic judicial headquarters to the complete judicial file for those involved in a proceeding.
5	Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Finance and Public Service	Directorate General of Registries and Notaries (M. Justice) Directorate General of the Land Registry (M Hacienda and FP)	IMPROVEMENT OF THE QUALITY OF REAL ESTATE DATA THROUGH THE CATASTRO-REGISTRATION COORDINATION OF THE PROPERTY	In Spain, the Property Registry and Real Estate Registry are institutions of a different nature and competences, which, however, fall on the same area: the real estate reality. Despite this, historically, the coordination of information has not existed, resulting in citizens finding different realities about the same good depending on whether they consulted one institution or another. This circumstance reduces the quality of the information, access to it and has also made it difficult for citizens to participate in the definition of goods that in many cases are their property and it is they who can best specify characteristics of them. In response to the above, this commitment will consist of implementing a system that facilitates citizens’ collaboration in the graphic description of real estate and favors public access and quality of information of real estate through a fluid and secure exchange of data between Land Registry and Land Registry. The objectives of this commitment are as follows: • Improve the quality of real estate information through: - A secure and coordinated exchange of data between Land Registry and Land Registry, - The involvement of citizens allowing them to provide information on the description of properties as well as the rectification and updating of the same. • Reduce the costs of obtaining real estate information through the connection and interoperability of both institutions that will also result in the simplification of administrative processing. • Reduce barriers to access to information, establishing simpler procedures for updating property descriptions. • Increase legal security in real estate traffic thanks to the improvement in the quality of information (graphic representation of real estate), increasing legal security in real estate traffic.
