Question - How we do balance ideas received from entrepreneurs with our tendering process and intellectual property issues. If private individuals give info to gov't, they must be protected and consulted before disseminated. IPI should have a statement on this issue. Have to provide third party projections. Feel it should be owned by the jurisdiction from which it was gathered.
Disclaimers are usually meaningless when it comes to liability.
AccessNS asks for permission to distribute info from each dept contacted. Their databases contain corporate and municipal info as well. Legislation can inhibit flow of info. Larger issue is the public perception. Will be putting out omnibus survey questions to find out what the public feels about data transfer issues and privacy.
