Sir Tim Berners-Lee has visited 10 Downing Street to update Gordon Brown and the Cabinet on the progress of his task to make government data more open and accessible.
The inventor of the web and his colleague Professor Nigel Shadbolt, from the University of Southampton, were asked in June to help open up public data.
According to Number 10, Berners-Lee told the Cabinet about the goal of delivering a single online access point to government information, similar to the one introduced by President Obama’s administration in the US.
