The description of this HLR could be more descriptive. SIMPL will provide the tools to set up a Data space including the creation of roles with different permission on it.

Agreed, the current description is still quite superficial and doesn't yet provide information on the role the Governance Authority will have in setting up a data space. Interested to know more about the corresponding L1 and L2 requirements when they are shared.

Requirement: Simpl-Open shall support a data space governed by more than one authority, each responsible for a defined set of participants or resources, with the authorities recognising each other's credentials and decisions.

GIVEN a data space in which two authorities each govern their own participants
WHEN a participant governed by one authority requests a resource of a participant governed by the other
THEN credentials and decisions issued by the first authority are accepted by the second without a second onboarding, and both authorities can see the decision in their audit data.

Example: in the European Health Data Space, each Member State designates one or more access bodies, and cross-border requests run between them (Regulation (EU) 2025/327, Art. 55 and 75).

Background: gap analysis between Simpl-Open and the adopted European Health Data Space Regulation, https://github.com/ma3u/MinimumViableHealthDataspacev2/blob/main/docs/s…
