(6) Where making dynamic data available for re-use immediately after collection, as referred to in paragraph 5, would exceed the financial and technical capacities of the public sector body, thereby imposing a disproportionate effort, those dynamic data shall be made available for re-use within a time frame or with temporary technical restrictions that do not unduly impair the exploitation of their economic and social potential. Temporary technical restrictions may also be applied, to the extent necessary and proportionate, where the immediate or bulk availability of the data would be liable to harm public security or the economic security of the Union or of a Member State.
