Statisticians in Scotland

The Statistician Group is committed to meeting user and provider needs as well as possible. It aims to provide relevant and reliable statistical information, analysis and advice to government, business and the people of Scotland.

Most Scottish Government official statistics are collected and produced by the Statistician Group. However, a range of survey data are produced by social researchers and other data are collected and made available as part of administrative processes or by agencies.
