Due to the need to promote the quality management activities in the National Statistical System, NSI offers to users a new .
Production and dissemination of high-quality and timely statistics is a priority for the European Statistical System (ESS). In the quality management the European Statistics Code of Practice principles are applied, which sets the standard for developing, producing and disseminating European statistics, and guarantees the proper functioning of the ESS.
The National Statistical System (NSS), as an integral part of the ESS, aims to provide quality statistical information and to meet the needs of different user groups. At national level, NSI plays a leading methodological and coordinating role in the development, production and dissemination of statistical information. Improving the quality of statistical information is continuously carried out, seeking the lowest possible costs and reducing the respondents’ burden.
In the quality assessment and quality documentation of statistical data, NSI produces quality reports, which are provided to Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union. Quality reports contain information on the survey methodology, description of main quality characteristics of a given product or survey and specific quality indicators. Eurostat evaluates the quality of the data received from all Member States and publishes quality reports of European statistics.
The European Statistics Code of Practice and the main strategic and methodological documents related to quality assurance in the NSS are published in the new . The results of the Peer Review on the implementation of European Statistics Code of Practice, held in 2007, and the results of completed projects of NSI related to quality assessment of statistical information are presented to the attention of users. Posting on the Internet the individual quality reports developed by NSI is upcoming.
