The draft Decree clarifies key provisions of Article 11 of the Data Law to standardize methods for collecting and creating data at the Center. It sets out a guiding principle to prioritize electronic data and treat digital data as the default. Data already held in connected, shared databases should not be collected again. Data used for state administration, administrative procedures, and public services must be digitized and created in line with regulations. Data generated from handling administrative procedures or public services should be integrated and synchronized to support long-term data exploitation. The draft also adds requirements related to data architecture, a common data dictionary, data provenance, and labeling to support exploitation, aiming to ensure interoperability, standardization, and risk management from the input stage.
On data exploitation, Article 6 outlines how data sharing, coordination, and exploitation are regulated, while also designing a separate operating mechanism for the Center. Center activities are not limited to accessing data for routine use. They also support research, controlled experimentation, and the development of models, products, and data services. The draft therefore introduces exploitation support measures including thematic data stores and data analytics repositories, a shared common exploitation environment, and a one stop connection model. It also provides for priority allocation of bandwidth, processing capacity, and access rights for pilot tasks, alongside strict control of access and retrieval in accordance with procedures, purposes, and safety.
Regarding data sharing, Article 7 clarifies the data sharing mechanism under Article 17 of the Data Law. The draft identifies gaps in the current framework, including the lack of a mechanism to classify data by sharing purpose, the lack of corresponding sharing conditions, and the lack of supporting infrastructure within the Center environment. To address these issues, the draft requires building data sharing infrastructure and a data sharing platform, together with data coordination and sharing measures. The stated objectives are to increase transparency and equality, reduce manual operations, improve monitoring and traceability, and ensure safety and security in the sharing process.
On data trading, Article 8 clarifies provisions on data trading platforms under the Data Law. The draft defines the Center’s data trading activities, including listing data; offering, exchanging, and trading data; establishing trading rules; monitoring and logging transactions; verifying, authenticating, and confirming data; and providing compliance support services. It also adds a fee-charging mechanism, including fee components, to ensure resources for operating the trading platform and to improve support and risk control.
Article 9 aims to institutionalize the policy of developing the data market and the data economy. The draft provides both direction and a Data Economy Framework and Data Economy Model. It identifies pillars, core activities, resource mobilization mechanisms, metrics, and disclosure of results.
The provisions are intended to shift data from being treated only as a resource to being an asset capable of creating value. They are also designed to help the Center coordinate, assess impact, and implement data development.
The Center is allowed to collect and create administrative data through an integrated, synchronized mechanism that forms a stable input data stream standardized to support development of the data economy.
The Center is granted prioritized access to data from the National Data Center and other legitimate data sources to support research, forecasting, experimentation, and development of products and services.
The draft designs a one stop model for exploiting data and prioritizes infrastructure resources to reduce latency, dependency on multiple channels, and to accelerate missions.
The draft lists value-adding activities from data, including analysis, synthesis, enrichment, data mediation, providing anonymized data sets, platform development, modeling, forecasting, and data exchange platforms, providing a legal basis to streamline procedures and accelerate commercialization.
The draft adds financial mechanisms for the data trading platform, including listing fees, trading fees, service fees, and other legitimate revenues, to ensure sustainable funding for operations.
Chapter II regulates the full data lifecycle at the Center, covering data collection and creation; data exploitation; data sharing; data trading; and development of the data economy. It is described as the foundational chapter for determining input data flows, extracting data value, and operating the market.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
