Operational framework ii: Legislation, security, confidentiality and disclosure control

In most countries, the preparation and conduct of a census and/or the collection and compilation of statistical data from administrative sources requires a legal basis, regulating issues such as: the allocation of funds for the census operations; the obligation of citizens to provide census information; the relationships between the agency responsible for the census and other public administrations involved in the census operations; the uses and linkage of registers to produce census data or to support field operations; and data security and confidentiality.
