Link eCertis and ESPD

[ec-mcs]

The ESPD EDM is complex. What about the idea to link entries from eCertis to the ESPD.
An example would be legislation. This information is available in ESPD and eCertis. Instead of having a copy in the ESPD, how about that the legislation could be linked to eCertis. If the information does not exist in eCertis than this information can be provided in the ESPD directly.
The general idea is see if we can make the ESPD EDM simpler by linking information to eCertis.

Maybe for Legislation the cbc:id could be used for the eCertis ID.

It is a very good idea, but it must be implemented on v3.0.0. Given the fact that as per today e-Certis is evolving and the ELI model is being proposed to replace the element cac:Legislation, this idea of replacing the whole set of data related to this legislation inside the Criterion with "controlled" identifiers (e.g. the ELI identifier) is even better.

[SellittoGiampaolo]

That would be optimal, not only for legislation.
It would be a great thing if one could make an espd request from eCertis, to have a uniform behavior both crossborder and inside the MS

Greetings,
We are currently studying a more close alignment between ESPD and eCertis and will be updating any further detail in this issue.

This fifth picture screenshot shows which data would be provided by eCertis taking the ESPD XML instances as reference:

And this last image shows the change that ESPD-EDM should include into the schema to be aligned with the proposal:

Please check the proposal and do not hesitate to provide any question, insight or improvement to the proposal.
