That’s incorrect. The law states than any Federal agency developing software (in house or outsourced) must publish the software as open source using internationally recognized licenses (see article 9). It also contains provisions for Open data (article 10). It’s a step into the right direction, but falls short quite a bit since this only applies to the Federal government and not the cantons or municipalities. Those can chose for themselves what software and systems to use and how.
