Once only
Principle to avoid repeated data entry across administrations.
Definitions (2)
A data‑reuse principle requiring administrations to share and reuse citizen and business data so that users need not submit the same information multiple times to different public bodies. The approach is intended to reduce administrative burden and improve interoperability through shared APIs and data standards.
An administrative principle and implementation objective whereby citizens and businesses provide certain information to the public administration only once, with subsequent reuse across government systems to reduce duplication, increase efficiency, and improve service delivery while ensuring data protection safeguards.
