Origin of Better Statistics CIC  (BSC)

• 2018 – Following a few years of concern about our National Business Statistics we formed the Campaign for Better Business Statistics.
• 2019 – Concentrated on aspects of estimating the so-called Gig economy. Meetings with Professor Sir Charles Bean, Richard Heys (ONS), first public meeting at NLC. Conducted Foundation Survey.
• 2020 – Lockdown interrupted progress on Business Survey plans. Instead, we took interest in:
• Business Impact of Covid Survey
• Escoe report
• Consultation on inflation indices by ONS / Treasury

Changed the name to Campaign for Better Statistics
