For example, data from Population and Housing Census 2011 are available in machine readable formats (XLS, CSV). http://www.czso.cz/csu/redakce.nsf/i/otevrena_data_pro_vysledky_scitani_lidu_domu_a_bytu_2011_(sldb_2011)

Reviewer comments

After a discussion with fellow open data experts I decided to changed the variable "available in bulk" to unsure. Demographic data are available in bulk whereas economic data (for example GDP), are non-bulk. Unsure seems as the best option to us then.
