Legislation and public scrutiny can strengthen it further. <br /> </em><br /> One unfortunate fallout of the recent controversy regarding the non-publication of the labour force survey report by the National Sample Survey Organisation has been the questions raised on the autonomy and independence of the Indian official statistical system. As reported in this newspaper, the possibility of junking the survey report in favour of more acceptable numbers from other sources are being explored. An objective understanding of the official statistical system would dispel many of the fears raised in this context, but cannot overstate the need to further strengthen the institutions.<br /> <br /> The credibility of processed official statistics require the government to stay at an arms-length from the processes of data collection, processing and dissemination. It is in this context that the need for an independent board or authority to manage national statistics is widely accepted. The heads of the national statistical organisations are thus treated differently from the usual civil service appointments. </div> <div align="justify"> <br /> In countries like India, the statistical system is horizontally and vertically decentralised. At the Centre, there are ministries/departments with departmental statistical offices. The vertical decentralisation happens between Union and the states &mdash; with the states having powers in some sectors as per the division of responsibilities listed in the Constitution. In this framework, the statistical officers are part of the general civil service and have to necessarily report to the departmental secretaries who are answerable to the concerned minister. Here, it is not always possible for them to exercise the kind of independence one would want them to. The situation is somewhat mitigated by having a common cadre of statistical personnel in all central government offices. This ensures that the statistical officers have on them a controlling influence outside the organisations where they work and leads to better coordination among them.
