(26)Given the trust granted to NSIs and their high technical expertise in data and metadata management, data quality and data protection, Member States should be encouraged, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, to assign to the NSIs an important role in the national data governance frameworks including those provided for in Regulation (EU) 2022/868 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote, with the objective of promoting data sharing, data integration and interoperability, metadata description, quality assurance and standard setting. In that regard, NSIs and other national authorities should be involved in the initial design, subsequent development and discontinuation of administrative data sources, databases or interoperability systems. Such involvement should be reinforced, where appropriate, with a view to ensuring, among other things, consistency and data quality, and with a view to minimising the reporting burden.
