What is the News?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has replaced the Standing Committee on Economic Statistics (SCES) with a Standing Committee on Statistics (SCoS).<\/span><\/p>\n

Why has the government decided to replace the Standing Committee on Economic Statistics (SCES) with the Standing Committee on Statistics (SCoS)?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Standing Committee on Economic Statistics (SCES) was set up in late 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was tasked with examining economic indicators pertaining to the industrial sector, the services sector and the labour force statistics.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This meant that their purview was limited to datasets like the Periodic Labour Force Survey, the Annual Survey of Industries, the Index of Industrial Production and the Economic Census.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hence, that’s why SCoS has been set up with a broader mandate to review the framework and results of all surveys conducted under the National Statistical Office (NSO).<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the functions of the Standing<\/b> Committee on Statistics (SCoS)?<\/b><\/p>\n

Chairman: <\/b>Pronab Sen, India\u2019s first chief statistician and the former chairman of the National Statistical Commission (NSC), has been named as the chairman.<\/span><\/p>\n

Members: <\/b>The committee has 10 official members and four non-official members who are eminent academics. It can have up to 16 members.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mandate: <\/b>To <\/span>advise the Ministry on technical aspects for all surveys, such as sampling, design, survey methodology and finalization of results.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 To identify data gaps that need to be filled by official statistics, along with an appropriate strategy to plug those gaps.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 To explore the use of administrative statistics to improve data outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Role of National Statistical Commission (NSC):<\/b> The committee will help finalize survey results. But the NSC will have the ultimate authority to approve the publication of those results.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
