The compilation of national accounts statistics in Namibia is undertaken by the Central Bureau of Statistics department at the National Planning Commission Secretariat. Before 1995 and since 1982, the Ministry of Finance compiled the national accounts and published them in the economic review. The Ministry of finance compiled the national accounts according to the 1968 SNA. In 1995 the Central Bureau of Statistics published the national accounts statistics applying the 1993 SNA. These annual estimates are released twice a year in the national accounts publication. The first release is the preliminary estimates which are released in March of each year and the second release is the revised estimates released in August of each year. The latest publication is the national accounts 2000-2007. The national accounts publication is disseminated in hard copies and electronic format posted at the National Planning Commission Secretariat website www.npc.gov.na. Since 2001 the Central Bureau of Statistics has been compiling provisionally quarterly GDP at constant 1995 prices. The provisional quarterly GDP is released with a time lag of 90 days after the reference quarter and is published in the quarterly bulletin of the Bank of Namibia. The quarterly bulletin is available at the Bank of Namibia website www.bon.com.na. The latest national accounts estimates are based on 2004 base year.
