In 2017, the UNECE Task Force on Register-based and Combined Censuses prepared the Guidelines on the Use of Registers and Administrative Data for Population and Housing Censuses. The Guidelines included a section on “data sources and their quality” with a general discussion of this topic. Experts at the UNECE-Eurostat Expert Meeting on Population and Housing Censuses (Geneva, 4-6 October 2017) identified the quality of administrative sources as a topic of primary importancefor many countries. Consequently, the Expert Meeting called for the establishment of a new UNECE Task Force on Measuring the Quality of Administrative Sources for Use in Censuses, building on the work of the previous Task Force.
