The Open Data User Group (ODUG), working in partnership with the Cabinet Office and the Local Government Association, are pleased to invite you to the launch of the LA Incentive scheme. This scheme is part of a Release of Data Fund initiative on behalf of the Public Sector Transparency Board.

The LA Incentive scheme is a funding initiative to enable Local Authorities to release three datasets as Open Data based on data requests received from the Open Data community. The three datasets which are funded under this initiative are: public conveniences, planning and licensing (focusing in this first instance on alcohol/light entertainment premises).

We are holding three launch events across England for Local Government Officers only.

By attending a launch event you will learn from the delivery team:

1. The scope of the LA Incentive scheme

2. Which datasets are included in the scheme

3. What you need to do to access the funding
