REVIEW OF THE NATIONAL STATISTICAL SYSTEM OF THE MALDIVES INSTITUTIONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL ISSUES GUIDANCE QUESTIONNAIRE
While there are given response categories for each question that states a statistical principle, policy or situation, it is
essential to supplement the short responses with explanatory text and reference to supporting documents for a
successful review process.
The questionnaire covers questions that fall within the competencies of various national agencies and hence should
be completed through a collaborative effort by the NSS. The national statistical office (Statistics Division of the
National Bureau of Statistics) is tasked with coordinating the completion of the questionnaire.
