ious Federal programs, based on data relating to in-
come and poverty status;
(2) the infrequency with which such data are
collected diminishes their reliability and usefulness
for public policy purposes;
(3) the relative lack of intercensal data can pre-
vent Federal funds from reaching those populations
that are in greatest need, as reflected in the dra-
matic and often unforeseen shifts in the way Federal
funds are reallocated following each decennial cen-
sus;
(4) the more frequent collection of data relating
to income and poverty status would allow policy-
makers to target scarce program funds more effec-
tively and in a more timely fashion; and
(5) the cost of producing the data needed to
achieve the ends described in paragraph (4) would
be small compared to the amounts that are distrib-
