In most countries today the decennial census of population is the primary source of geographically detailed information on the basic demographic, economic and related characteristics of the population. Many official statisticians agree that a population census need not gather all demographic and housing information on a 100 per cent basis. The issue of the use of sampling in conjunction with the population census is pertinent in the context of the development of a system of labour force surveys. The labour force survey is often the largest and most important population-based survey undertaken regularly in many countries.
