PREREQUISITES FOR BUILDING AN INTEGRATED STATISTICAL INFORMATION SYSTEM EDUCATION OF THE NSI AND MES
Stoyan Baev
Abstract: The data in the administrative registers of the Ministry Education and Science may in general be used for statistical purposes, but this requires the establishment or existence of a number of preconditions.
The prerequisites for the construction of an Integrated Statistical Information System ‘Education’ of the NSI and MES are presented in the article in three main groups - legal, organizational and methodological assumptions. The most important legal prerequisites - Regulation (EU) № 759/2015 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2015 on European Statistics and the Law on Statistics are present. Organizational and methodological prerequisites have to be created with the participation of experts from both government institutions.
The benefits of the integration of the information systems and registers of the two institutions will be numerous and significant. The most important of these are related to reducing the administrative burden on respondents, ensuring methodological unity between the NSI and MES in the production and dissemination of statistics on education and reduction of budget spending.
