Article type: Research Article

Authors: Malaguerra, Carlo

Abstract: The Swiss Federal Statistical Office developed and adopted a new statistical data dissemination policy. It deals with three essential components: The categories of users, the information needs to be met and the possible ways of disseminating data. On the basis of their analysis, concrete measures were defined which allow to improve statistical data dissemination. Among the various methods of dissemination, priority is given to publications which appear in a new light, and to the creation of a modern data-processing infrastructure based on data banks.
