"I was pleased to support this report as what use are statistics if they cannot be trusted? Reliable and accurate statistics are important for policy making, particularly economic and budgetary related. The report highlights the need for impartiality and objectivity in addition to ensuring that statistics are compiled by national agencies separate from political control. We must not let political parties meddle with statistics and skew them to their advantage. I hope that by streamlining the entire production chain, we shall have increasingly accurate facts and figures which have been properly verified and that we can have confidence in."@en1
