2011 Census Quality Strategy

The 2011 Census Quality Strategy sets out a structure for managing and delivering quality in the 2011 Census. It is a high-level document and as such presents a general framework for developing and implementing processes to define, manage and measure the quality of the 2011 Census. It was not intended as a specification, or to define specific quality standards or how they would be measured.

Lessons about quality, learned from the 2001 Census, have an important role in setting the approach to managing quality in 2011. The key lessons highlighted the need for a more holistic and integrated approach to quality.
