| Summary: | The mission of the Agency of the
Republic of Kazakhstan on Statistics (ARKS) is to provide
the Kazakh government, businesses and individuals with
reliable and accurate statistics collected and produced in
line with the international methodology and best practice. A
Statistical Master Plan (SMP) is the internationally
accepted, standard starting point for comprehensive
improvement activities. With the participation of data
providers, users, other national stakeholders and
international donors, the ARKS has produced this SMP for the
period up to 2015. The SMP builds upon existing national
strategies and capabilities. It establishes and prioritizes
data needs and sources. The SMP has two objectives: (1)
present a strategy for the Kazakh National Statistical
System (KNSS) development over the period to 2008-2015 and
how it can be implemented; (2) provide a baseline assessment
of the KNSS as the basis for strategy formulation. The SMP
provides the basis and justification for investments by the
ARKS and other government statistical agencies in
improvements to the statistical infrastructure and program.
It includes information that is vital to senior managers in
preparing budget requests. The SMP was prepared by the ARKS
with the assistance of a team of international experts
funded by the World Bank who worked in conjunction with
ARKS senior management and other stakeholders. The
preparation process involved intensive consultation and
input from the full range of stakeholders. In addition it
benefited from close cooperation from a concurrent KNSS
Global Assessment by a UNECE Study Group. |
