| Summary: | This report looks at the governance and
management systems required to establish the National
Statistical System, and is the result of two missions to
South Africa by the consultant. The development of the
National Statistical System (NSS) has made considerable
progress over the life of the project particularly in
raising awareness of the NSS among all parts of government,
and forming partnerships with producer and user government
bodies. Several consultants have worked on plans for the
NSS, including a business plan, departmental audits and
training. A step change in data quality in the wider
statistical system of government departments will require an
increase in resources and greater priority to be given to
improving information systems. Additional resources will be
required in the producing departments outside Statistics
South Africa (Stats SA). |
