The data held by the Statistics Department are exclusively processed by the department's technicians. In the event that an external service lender has to configure an information system, it is subject to the duty of statistical secrecy and confidentiality, and operates the treatments within the information systems managed by the DSI, without transferring information.

Statistical information is published in accordance with a calendar of publications approved according to the statistical plan and taking into account principle 6 of Impartiality and objectivity of the Code of Good Practice for European Statistics of November 16, 2017 in which "The statistical authorities develop, produce and disseminate European statistics respecting scientific independence and in an objective, professional and transparent manner, so that all users receive the same treatment."

Link to the section of the website related to quality and management reports

The quality assurance framework for Department of Statistics statistics is based on the ESSCoP, the EUROSTAT European Statistics Code of Practice. The ESSCoP consists of 16 principles, grouped into three areas: Institutional Environment, Processes and Products. Each principle is associated with a series of indicators that allow its size. Different tools provided by EUROSTAT are used to assess quality: the aforementioned indicators, self-assessment inspired by the DESAP model, Peer Review, user satisfaction surveys and other assessment procedures.

In 2020, the methodology proposed by Eurostat within the framework of the "European Statistical System Peer Reviews" has been incorporated into the annual quality report. This methodology includes the qualitative aspects of the application of the statistical principles contained in Law 2/2013 on the statistical function, as well as the European code of good statistical practices. From its application, it is concluded that it is necessary to carry out two actions that should allow the improvement of most of the indicators, and the rebound of the quality of the statistics produced or disseminated.
In 2021, the Manual for the preparation of quality and metadata reports has been implemented, based on which the concepts and metadata necessary for the preparation of user and producer reports have been built.
The proposal for a statistical plan for the period 2022-2025 recommended the development of activities A229-Generic model of the statistical process, based on the GSBPM methodology of the UN working group (Modern Stats), for the analysis and monitoring of the process of conceptualization, production, analysis and statistical dissemination, as well as activity A230-Generic model of statistical information, based on the GSIM methodology of the UN working group, for the organization and harmonization of the information produced. Both activities must be carried out by the activity set of the plan, during the next four years.

In general terms, users have the need to obtain the Key outputs of each statistic with punctuality and precision at the time of its dissemination, that these be related to other data or to be able to have access to microdata.

Obtaining information on the needs of users and the uses for which the data is needed is achieved through surveys of user groups, on a four-year basis with the aim of configuring the new statistical plans.
From the treatment of queries addressed to the Department of Statistics, as well as the conclusions of the results of work on projects with other agencies, the members of the department adjust the current availability, based on the quality of the data in administrative records and surveys, internal procedures; and respect for statistical secrecy.

A quadrennial survey is carried out to find out the level of satisfaction of the users where they are asked, for each one of the statistical areas, the frequency of use of each statistical activity, the priority that they want for each statistical activity, as well as an assessment of the adaptation of statistics to the principles of official statistics (Accuracy and reliability, Opportunity and punctuality, Coherence and comparability, Accessibility and clarity and Relevance).

User satisfaction is also evaluated through the queries they make to the Department of Statistics and the number of accesses they make to the web.

Compliance with the variables included in the 2023 program is 100%.

The period of time between the availability of the data and the publication of the results is defined based on the time when the original information is received, in the treatment and analysis and its dissemination. Hence, on the one hand, work is being done with the rest of the collaborating organizations to reduce the time it takes to receive the information as much as possible. On the other hand, so the treatment and analysis work continuously by reducing the analysis time, promoting greater automation of the processes to be more efficient.

The dissemination of the data is carried out according to the dates announced in the calendar of publications included in each press release in which the next publication is announced. At the end of the statistical program an evaluation is carried out in order to reduce the delay time.

The data is comparable between parishes and between the rest of the countries of the European Union.

Statistical series are constructed based on temporal comparability.
Data revisions imply a modification of historical values.

The review of data from administrative records is adjusted and updated based on its particularity.

This is a summary statistic, compiled from results from different sources. Source data from the Parishes censuses.

Data is collected once a month.

Mixed formulas

The information processing processes include internal consistency controls.
The results and cohorts are contracted with external administrative sources.
The analysis and publication of the results includes the validation of temporal coherence.

Once the validity of the received file is checked, certain variables are recoded and transformed. In a later phase, inconsistencies between variables are detected and corrected. After debugging, derived variables and result tables are obtained.

The data published in the website does not present any stational adjustment, however, press releases do.
