(24) The existing rules should be streamlined to enhance clarity and consistency, to contribute to a reduction in regulatory burden. Nevertheless, the two reuse regimes should remain distinct and their respective scope of application should continue to depend on the characteristics of the data or documents and the context of their reuse. Public sector bodies should apply the open data regime whenever possible. Only where they determine that data or a document contains information corresponding to certain categories of protected data should they limit its public availability and consider making it available for reuse as protected data.
