Webinar: Impact of Covid-19 on taking Scotland’s next census

Webinar: Impact of Covid-19 on taking Scotland’s next census
Join us for an update on Scotland’s Census 2022 from the National Records of Scotland (NRS) team. Esta Clark (Head of Statistical Design) and Larissa Baines (Head of Census Business Design) will talk through the census statistical and operational design for 2022, noting the changes from the last census in 2011 and areas that are being considered in light of the global pandemic.

 

This free webinar is organised by SRA Scotland and is open to all.

Following careful consideration and on recommendation of NRS, Ministers have informed the Scottish Parliament of their intention to move Scotland’s Census date to March 2022.

The quality of the census data must remain robust, and by moving to 2022 NRS can continue to deliver a census which ensures the highest possible response rate from people across Scotland, to allow government, local authorities and key services plan for every element of public life, from building homes to NHS support.

NRS is working closely with stakeholders and partners to ensure appropriate data is available to support work that was expecting to make use of Census 2021 data, particularly for key funding allocations and policy decisions.

This is a free event.

The webinar will be hosted via Zoom.
