Data

As the national statistical office, our role is to tell this island’s story in numbers using high quality, reliable and relevant statistical information. Statistics are fundamental to all of our lives—in the growth and sustainable development of our Country and for the well-being of our people. That is why we have made it easier for you to access the information you need, when you need it, to make informed decisions on our society and economy.
