"I voted in favour of this European Parliament report because reliable and accurate statistics are essential to allow effective economic and budgetary policy making by the Member States at European Union level. European users of statistics should be supplied with relevant, timely and accurate data, which is collected and compiled by national agencies in accordance with the principles of impartiality, objectivity and professional independence. The European Parliament therefore supports the Commission’s intention of proposing amendments to the Statistical Regulation in order to establish a proactive approach to monitoring and assessing public finance data at an early upstream stage in order to allow for corrective action at the earliest possible juncture, and welcomes the proposal to establish a legal framework aimed at reinforcing the governance framework, especially with regard to the professional independence of national statistical authorities and Eurostat. All Member States should also be required to formally adopt a commitment to take all necessary measures to maintain confidence in statistics and to allow for more rigorous enforcement of the European Statistics Code of Practice. Eurostat should look at ways to make its publications, particularly those online, more user-friendly to the average citizen and non-professionals, especially with regard to the use of graphs. Eurostat’s website should allow easier access to comprehensive long-term disaggregated data and include intuitive and comparative graphs in order to give more added value to citizens."@en1
