By intelligently sharing information from the System of Base Registries, the government enhances its efficiency and service quality. For this purpose, four system facilities are provided. These facilities enable the System of Base Registries to present its products and services to customers in a unified manner.
Formal Agreements
- Every individual Base Registry must adhere to the 12 requirements of the System of Base Registries.
- The use of ‘Digikoppeling’ (the interoperability standard used in the Dutch public sector, enabling secure and reliable data exchange) is obligatory for automated data exchange between GDI information systems or cross-sector messaging.
Additional agreements
Additionally, some agreements are established but not formally finalised. Here’s a brief overview.
- The base registry using data from another base registry is responsible for establishing and maintaining relationships between objects across multiple base registries.
- The same applies to feedback about errors in the relationship between objects: the user of the base register is the one responsible.
- A base registry always provides its consumers with the key to the corresponding object, ensuring clarity regarding which data pertains to the same object. Of course, this is except for any restrictions stipulated in regulations (e.g. the Citizen Service Number).
- It is the responsibility of a base registry to determine, depending on the preferred assurance level, whether its data products are accessed via Diginetwerk (Dutch) or the internet, or through both.
