We wish to thank the staff of the National Statistics Office for their valuable input, guidance and work in bringing this project to a successful conclusion.

Thanks are extended to the staff at the Planning Office of the Ministry of Finance for their review of the survey and for their assistance in planning the execution of the work.

Thanks also to the team at the Telecommunications Division for their hard work in making the survey possible.
Finally, we especially wish to thank all those members of the national community who gave a few moments of their valuable time to complete the survey.

Introduction The national Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Household survey was launched in April of 2008 at a press briefing at the Office of the Prime Minister on the Queen Elizabeth Highway in St. John’s Antigua.

As stated then, the purpose of the household survey was to gather statistics on the use of ICTs in the national community.
The survey follows upon two similar surveys which were conducted recently to gauge the extent of ICT usage with the public sector as well as within the business sector.

In addition to finding out what is going on in the national community vis-à-vis ICTs, it is expected that the results of household ICT survey will provide concrete evidence and facts upon which national ICT policy and strategies can be engineered.
In this regard the survey will provide data to help monitor progress towards global development targets, in particular the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs).

The survey gives essential information for planning at national and regional levels.

It provides that information on a consistent basis, both about the country as a whole and about parishes and administrative districts in relation to one another.
Furthermore the results of this national survey can be use as benchmarks for current ICT statistics and will also provide a basis for monitoring and evaluating current and ongoing ICT initiatives.

In 2005 the Partnership on Measuring ICT for Development (a consortium of United Nations and other developmental agencies1) developed a core list of ICT indicators to standardize and harmonize ICT statistics at a global level.
The purpose of the core list was to develop internationally comparable statistics on the information society that could be collected by all countries.

The Antigua and Barbuda ICT Household survey (see page 36) references in large measure the Partnership’s list of core indicators on access to, and use of, ICT by households and individuals.
1 International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD), United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Institute for Statistics, UN ICT Task Force, The World Bank, UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), UN Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP), UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), and EUROSTAT 1 Survey Mechanisms By definition, a survey draws on a representative subset of the population and uses this as a proxy for the entire population.
In general a sample size of about ten percent (10%) was used and the resulting data is projected as representative of what is taking place in the population as a whole.

The ICT Household survey collected its information from the primary unit, the household2.

Consequently, approximately two thousand four hundred (2400) households (or ten percent (10%) of all households in Antigua and Barbuda) were visited and were requested to complete a short survey questionaire3.
The ICT Household Survey was a collaborative exercise between the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting and Telecommunications and the National Statistics Office (NSO).

The Chief Statistician was in overall charge of the Survey process with the day-to-day work being headed by the Senior Statistician of the Census and Surveys section of the NSO.

As far as the field work was concerned, a total of about 30 enumerators canvassed the country collecting the data.
They were supervised by 4 supervisors and 2 liaison officers.

The country was divided by the NSO, for census and survey taking purposes, into Enumeration Districts (EDs).

The EDs are contiguous areas in each of the six4 parishes in Antigua as well as in Barbuda.

Each ED has stable physical boundaries and contains around 100 households.

For the purposes of this exercise approximately 11 households (approximately 10% of households) in each ED were listed to be surveyed.
Consequently a 10% sample of the approximately 24,000 households within the 288 Enumeration Districts of the country were assigned to the 30 enumerators.

Each enumerator canvassed all of the EDs assigned to him/her and located ALL of the households on the list provided, and enumerated them, only.

A field supervisor was assigned to every seven (7) enumerators and the enumerator reported to him/her on a regular basis during the course of the survey.
The ICT Survey was conducted under the General Statistics Act of 1975.

Under this Act, both the public and institutions have an obligation to cooperate with survey activities.

All individual data is strictly confidential and has to be used for statistical purposes only.

This means that the information can only be used for the purpose of compiling statistics and no individual information can be disclosed to anyone outside the survey organization.
2 "The concept of household is based on the arrangements made by persons, individually or in groups, for providing themselves with food or other essentials for living.
A household may be either (a) a one-person household, that is to say, a person who makes provision for his or her own food or other essentials for living without combining with any other person to form part of a multi- person household, or (b) a multi-person household, that is to say, a group of two or more persons living together who make common provision for food or other essentials for living.
The persons in the group may pool their incomes and may, to a greater or lesser extent, have a common budget; they may be related or unrelated persons or constitute a combination of persons both related and unrelated” (UN, 1998, paragraph 1.324).

3 Two thousand three hundred and twenty two (2322) households responded to the survey.

4 St. John’s, St. Georges, St. Peter, St. Phillip, St Paul and St. Mary.
For the purposes of this survey the St. John’s parish was divided into St. John’s City and St. John’s Rural.

2 Survey Results Profile of Respondents 5 Figure 1 and Table 1 indicate that the two largest numbers of households that were surveyed are in the St. John’s City and St John’s Rural areas.

This is primarily because these are the most populated areas in the country and collectively they have about sixty percent (60%) of all the households.
Barbuda and the parish of St. Phillip have the smallest numbers of households; each having only two percent (2%) of the number of households in the country.

As shown in Figure 2, the majority of the respondents were parents.

Fifty five percent (55%) were female and thirty three percent (33%) were male (see Figure 5).

Sex was not stated for twelve percent (12%) of the interviewees.
Figure 6 reveals that except for the parish of St. George the number of females who answered the survey was greater that the number of males.

With regard to the income level of households, about twenty percent (20%) of respondents indicated that their household’s monthly income6 was less than $2,000 and so they can be considered low income.

Fifty percent of the households can be considered middle income.
The majority of those so indicating (forty one percent – 41% of respondents) noted that their household income was between $2,000 and $5,000.

Only two percent (2%) of respondents stated that their household’s monthly income exceeded $10,000.

The household income profiles are given in Figure 3, and in Table 2 below.

Figure 4 clearly shows that the majority of households in all of the parishes are in the $2,000 to $5,000 monthly income range.
A weighted scoring model of household income levels shown in Appendix C on page 50 gives a detail listing of enumeration districts categorized by income bracket.

5 The words respondent, interviewee and householder are used interchangeable throughout this document and refers to the person who answered the survey questionnaire.

The survey has found than in Antigua and Barbuda that there is an almost ubiquitous access to radios and televisions.

Eighty two percent (82%) or respondents indicated that they have a radio in their household whilst ninety seven percent (97%) indicated that they have a television.

These statistics are shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8.

This is seen in Figure 10 and in Figure 19.

Comparatively, a greater proportion of the households in Barbuda and in St. John’s City own computers than in any other parts in the country.

This is reflected in Figure 11, Figure 12 and Figure 13.
The majority of interviewees in the parishes of St. John’s Rural, St. Mary, St. Paul, St. John’s City and in Barbuda indicated that their household own one or more computers.

This is not so in St. Peter, St. Phillip or in St. George where less than half of the households in these areas own a computer.

This is also shown in Figure 13.

When asked for a reason as to why there are no computers in their household, thirty nine percent (39%) of those without computers stated that they were too expensive.
Thirty four percent (34%) indicated that they had other priorities.

Only fourteen percent (14%) responded they do not need a computer.

In fact the table in Appendix D on page 56 confirms that the in every enumeration district across the country more households have used computers that those that own computers.

Figure 22 shows the usage of computers by households across all parishes.

In general over half of all housholders in every parish have used a computer in the past year.

The area with the highest proportion of householders that have used computers in the past 12 months is the parish of St. George.

This is seen in Figure 23.


Figure 24 and Figure 25 shows that computer usage is highest in the 30 – 39 and 40 – 49 age ranges.

These figures also show that computer usage is lowest in the over 60 age range.

When examined by the education level attained by interviewees, the data reveals that over seventy percent (70%) of persons who have attained a secondary school education or higher have used a computer during the last 12 months.

This is shown in Figure 26.


In regards to the usage of computers by sex, more females have used computers than males in the last 12 months.

Figure 27 shows that of the respondents who said they used computers sixty two (62%) were female whereas twenty eight percent (28%) were male.

Figure 28 and Figure 29 show that of the male respondents to the survey sixty eight percent (68%) indicated that they had used a computer in the past 12 months.
For the survey’s female respondents, sixty nine percent (69%) indicated that had done similiarly.

The areas St. John’s City and St. John’s Rural have the majority of fixed line telephones in the country (about fifty four percent – 54% in total).

Barbuda and the parish of St. George each have about three percent (3%) of the fixed line phones in the country.

When examined individually by parish, the lowest percentage of households in the parishes of St. John’s City and St. John’s Rural have fixed line phones than those that do in other parts of the country.
In St. Phillip, more so than in any other part of the country, more household have fixed line telephones than do not.

This is shown in Figure 32.

More households have mobile telephones than fixed line phones.

Seventy eight percent (78%) of the households surveyed indicated that they have one or more mobile phones.

Only twelve percent (12%) of the households indicated that they did not have access to a mobile unit.
As with fixed units the majority of mobile telephones are in the St. John’s City and St. John’s Rural areas.

Similarly, Barbuda and the parish of St. George both have about two percent (2%) of the mobile phones in the country.

Figure 35 shows that almost three-quarter of the households in every parish have mobile phones.

The greatest density of mobile phones is in the parish of St. George.
As shown in Figure 36 Cable and Wireless has the greatest share of the mobile telephone market; fifty six percent (56%).

Digicel has twenty six percent (26%) and APUA PCS has fourteen percent (14%).

Over fifty percent (50%) of those who accessed the Internet did so at home.

Twenty percent (20%) did so at work.

Only one percent (1%) had accessed the Internet at a Community Access Center over the past 12 months.

Figure 46 shows this.

Most respondents use the Internet for communications (email, chatting etc.)
and for web browsing.

Relatively few respondents indicated that they use the Internet for Government services.

Over the past two years the Government has embarked on its Connect Antigua and Barbuda Initiative which seeks to bridge the digital divide in the country.

At its foundation several Community Access Centers or CACs have been developed, each of which house several computers with high speed Internet access.

When asked how they felt about the usefulness of the CAC initiative ninety five percent (95%) agreed or strongly agreed with the program.

Although four percent (4%) of those who were aware of the CAC initiative did not give an answer, only one percent (1%) of respondents disagreed with the initiative.

These statistics are reflected in Figure 50 and Figure 51.

When asked if they were aware of this website the majority of respondent (forty one percent – 41%) said that they did not.

Slightly less; thirty nine percent (39%) of respondents; indicated that they did.

When those who were aware of the portal were asked about its usefulness fifty two percent (52%) either agreed or strongly agreed.

The percentage of the respondents in this group who disagreed was negligible but a large proportion had no opinion or gave no response.
Figure 52 and Figure 53 present these findings.

The ownership of both mobile and fixed line phones is high however cell phone ownership far outstrips that on fixed line telephone ownership in households across the country.

This fact means that services (especially m-commerce services) could receive wider coverage if they are targeted specifically towards the mobile phone using community in the country.

b.

Fewer households own a computer than those that do not.

There is a direct relationship between income levels and computer ownership.
The digital divide does exist in the country especially in the parishes of St. George, St. Phillip, St. Peter and St. John’s Rural.

The future placement of Community Access Centres should seek to address this.

c. More people use computers than those who own these devices.

This suggests that there is an obvious need for computers.

Many householders (thirty nine percent – 39%) who did not have a computer indicated that this was because it was too expensive.
The majority of households are in the low or middle low income category.

This data suggest that consideration should be given to adopting strategies to lessen the cost of computers to the general public.

There are different mechanisms that members of the business community and the government could adopt to address this.

Flexible computer pricing plans is one such as well as computer price subsidies for low income persons is another.
d. Less than ten percent (10%) of persons over 60 years used a computer in the past year.

The elderly is a valuable resource in any country but the data suggests that there is an age dimension to the digital divide in Antigua and Barbuda.

Specific computer learning programs, given at the Community Access Centres and elsewhere, which target the elderly, can help to address this problem.
e. Although 53% of respondents used the Internet only fifty percent (50%) of these (or twenty six - 26% of respondents) access the Internet from home.

The data suggest that there is a need and a market for Internet access at home.

Since forty three of respondents suggest that expense was the reason for not accessing the Internet, various pricing options also need to be examined for reducing the cost of access and expanding the number of persons getting on-line.
In Barbuda is only twenty two percent (22%) of households are connected to the Internet.

This is the lower than elsewhere in the country.

f. g. The data shows that the Internet is highly accessed at work and at school and primarily by persons with a secondary school education or greater.

This suggests an academic achievement dimension to the digital divide which could be addressed through the Ministry of Education’s adult education programs.
h. Many people seem to be aware of Government’s initiative with regard to its Community Access Centres.

Fewer are aware of the Government’s website and other initiatives.

This is also reflected by some of the choices that people wish to see especially in the light that some of these already exist on the Government’s website.

More work and promotion of the Government’s website is needed in this regard.
27 In conclusion, the author notes that the statistics revealed in this report, though comprehensive is not fully exhaustive.

It is suggested that since the survey database can be cross referenced down to the street level (in some cases) it can be further massaged if and when more detailed reports are required.
