On 2-3 November 1998 PCBS hosted a workshop on administrative records and policy planning, focusing on the need for cooperation between Palestinian institutions when defining user needs and when PCBS is collecting administrative records for statistical purposes. Now PCBS invites you to a workshop on administrative registers , of which the Population Register in Ministry of Interior is very central. With a national administrative register, we understand a complete list of units of a defined type, containing necessary data to communicate with the unit by mail and by visit.
Administrative data describes a situation or a period for a unit, for administrative use.
In order to collect, store, and verify that such data are complete, an administrative register is needed. Historical data from registers and administrative records are used for statistical purposes. Inform of the potential utilization through integrated registers, among them saving costs and reducing burden in providing needed information. Increase the general awareness of administrative registers among governmental institutions. There is a strong need to increase the general awareness on the potential benefit of extensive administrative use of registers.
