Directive 2003/98/EC on the re-use of public sector information, otherwise known as the PSI Directive is a EU directive that encourages EU member states to make as much public sector information available for re-use as possible. Previous to the creation of this directive this area was left to member states to regulate. This directive now provides a common legislative framework for this area.

The Directive is an attempt to remove barriers that hinder the re-use of public sector information throughout the Union.
