HSUG / RSS OSS Webinar: User Perspectives on the Code of Practice

Описание: The Health Statistics Users Group (HSUG) and the Royal Statistical Society (RSS) Official Statistics Section are organising a webinar to discuss user perspectives on the Code of Practice. This webinar is intended to follow on from the revision of the Code of Practice by OSR (Office for Statistics Regulation) - not within the consultation period, but as part of the implementation and Way Forward - looking at issues from the perspective of a user.

A report of the recent Code of Practice consultation has been published by OSR https://osr.statisticsauthority.gov.u...

This report summarises the findings and next steps. OSR is now moving ahead with the refresh of the Code and is aiming to release the third edition in autumn 2025. Although the consultation has closed, OSR is open to receiving further feedback as they finalise the Code.
