Dutch term or phrase: aangaan van rechten
Report about e-government. Does this mean "exercise rights"?

Burgers en bedrijven krijgen in de informatiesamenleving meer regie over hun eigen situatie. Ze kunnen zelf keuzes maken, maar daarvoor moeten ze wel kunnen beschikken over hun eigen dossiers. Welke overheidsorganisatie welke informatie van burgers en bedrijven krijgt wordt in principe bepaald door burgers en bedrijven zelf, met uitzondering van de bijzondere handhavingstaken van de overheid. Voor het afhandelen van transacties (aangaan van rechten, nakomen van plichten) zullen burgers en bedrijven uiteraard de relevante informatie moeten verstrekken, wat geregeld is in de betreffende wetten. De overheidsorganisaties hebben het recht de kwaliteit van deze informatie te verifiëren en eisen te stellen aan de kwaliteit van de gegevens.
