The amended Public Sector Information (‘PSI’) Directive, which now affects museums and galleries, came into force in the UK on 18 July 2015
The Directive aims to encourage enterprise by the re-use of information already created by the public sector. Examples are weather and mapping data, created by the public purse and then re-purposed commercially by third-party entrepreneurs for use in the GPS systems and apps many of us now have on our phones.
Public sector bodies like Tate charge fees for the re-use of certain material. This is done on the same basis that Tate Gallery charges Tate Enterprises Ltd, its wholly-owned trading subsidiary. A formal, paid-for, annual licence exists between Tate Gallery and Tate Enterprises Ltd.

Any PSI queries, requests, applications or complaints should be sent to psi@tate.org.uk
