The purpose of the harmonized consumer price indices is to be able to estimate the development in the countries' consumer prices on a comparable basis. HICP is used both by the Commission and by the European Central Bank in connection with the valuation of the price development in the individual countries in connection with the implementation and monitoring of the 3rd phase of the EMU. All the EU Member States and Norway and Iceland have compiled HICP since January 1997., Statistical presentation, HICP shows the development of prices for goods and services bought by private households in Denmark. Thus, the index also covers foreign households' consumption expenditure in Denmark, but not Danish households' consumption expenditure abroad. The index shows the monthly changes in the costs of buying a fixed basket of goods, the composition of which is made up in accordance with the households' consumption of goods and services., The price indices for April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2020 and January, February, March, April, May and June 2021 are more uncertain than usual, as the non-response rate has been significantly larger than normal and some businesses have been shut down due to COVID-19., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The HICP is calculated on the basis of 23,000 prices collected from approx. 1,600 shops, companies and institutions throughout Denmark. Most prices are by far collected monthly. The data material received is examined for errors, both by computer (using the so called HB-method) and manually. The different goods and services, which are included in the HICP, are first grouped according to approx. 500 elementary aggregates for which elementary aggregate indices are calculated. The elementary aggregate indices are mainly calculated as geometric indices. The elementary aggregate indices are weighted together into sub-indices that are in turn aggregated into the total HICP., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The HICP is generally viewed as a reliable statistic based on the views of users., Important users are among others The European Central Bank, The European Commission, The Ministry of Finance, The Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Interior, The Danish Central Bank as well as private banks and other financial organizations., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, No calculation has been made of the uncertainty connected with sampling in the HICP as the sample is not randomly drawn, but the quality of the HICP is accessed to be high. In connection with COVID-19, uncertainty is greater than usual as it has been difficult to collect prices and many industries have been closed down., In addition to the "general" uncertainty connected with sampling, there are a number of sources of potential bias in the consumer price index. One source is the consumers substitution between goods and shops and another source is changes in the sample., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The HICP is published on the 10th or the first working day thereafter, following the month in which the data was collected. , The statistics are published without delay in relation to the scheduled date., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Danish HICP can be compared directly with other countries' HICPs. Using the HICPs it is possible to compare the inflation rates between different countries directly., The Danish HICP is also related to the national consumer price index., From January 2001, the only difference between the national consumer price index and the HICP is the coverage of goods and services, as owner-occupied dwellings is only recorded in the consumer price index and not in the HICP. , From January till December 2000, the only difference between the national consumer price index and the HICP is that both owner-occupied dwellings and private hospitals are only recorded in the consumer price index and not in the HICP. , Before January 2000, there are differences in calculation and methodology between the two indices as well as several differences as regards their coverage of goods and services., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published monthly in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP), .

The statistics are used by i.e. EU, tourism organizations and municipalities in order to analyze the development in camping tourism. The survey has been compiled since 1971, but in its current form comparable from 1992 and onwards. , Statistical presentation, These statistics are a monthly summary of occupancy and capacity in Danish campsites with a minimum of 75 camping units. The statistics are broken down by nationality of the guests, permanent leased pitches and geography by NUTS 2 level. Furthermore there is a annual summary of occupancy and capacity in Danish campsites with 10-74 camping units. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Data for the statistics are collected monthly from Danish campsites with a minimum of 75 camping units and yearly from Danish campsites with 10-74 camping units using an online questionnaire on Virk.dk, or by using a system-to-system solution where the campsites booking system automatically sends data to Statistics Denmark. Collected data are validated on micro-level during the data collection and again on macro-level when aggregated.

The annual statistics also cover campsites with 10-74 camping units. A possible source of error can be that the respondents have difficulties distinguishing between the concepts of nights spent and arrivals. Another possible source of error may be the fact that the reported data is in many cases based on estimations by the respondents. Missing answers are imputed which may lead to revisions of published data. , Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The monthly statistics for campsites with a minimum of 75 camping units are published approx. 40 days after the end of the reference period.

The statistical organisation of EU "Eurostat" does not include nights spent on permanent leased pitches when they publish data from countries in EU. From 2013, the number of nights on permanent leased pitches is based on factors of average lead times on camp sites. This change may result in a lack of comparability, but it is not expected to be significant. The number of nationalities has expanded from 13 to 51 nationality groups. This can lead to a lack of consistency when comparing data over time. , Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The statistics are published in , News from Statistics Denmark, .

55,000 enumerators complete Moroccan Census 2024

Monday 30 September marked the final day of the 2024 General Census of Population and Housing in Morocco. , 4 October 2024 11:00 , By , Klaus Munch Haagensen, Throughout September, an impressive team of 55,000 enumerators, supervisors, and controllers - easily recognizable by their burgundy-coloured caps - took on the challenging task of gathering crucial data from every household across the country., The census was the seventh of its kind., Data were collected from households across the nation, including urban, rural, and even nomadic populations. The census aimed to gather comprehensive information on the demographic, social, and economic conditions of Morocco’s population. This operation also extended to housing conditions, providing essential data for national development planning., Wide Scope and Participation, The census included all residents within the Kingdom, regardless of nationality or residence status. This included individuals in ordinary households, nomads, the homeless, as well as those residing in institutions like hospitals and prisons. Foreigners living in Morocco were also counted, except for members of the diplomatic corps., To conduct the operation, over 55,000 individuals were mobilized as enumerators, controllers, and supervisors. Participants underwent extensive online and face-to-face training, ensuring that they were well-equipped to handle the intricacies of data collection., The census covered a range of important demographic and socio-economic factors, from household composition and education to health coverage, employment, and access to essential services. A dual questionnaire system was used: a short version for the entire population and a more detailed one for 20% of households., Harnessing Technology for Precision, For the first time, the census utilized advanced technology, including the deployment of 55,000 electronic tablets. These devices, co-financed by the Ministry of National Education, were key to ensuring accurate and timely data collection. The tablets were securely managed, with encryption systems in place to safeguard the collected data., The census also utilized Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to map the entire country, ensuring that no areas were overlooked. This involved geo-referencing 37,109 census districts and over 4.1 million buildings in urban areas. The mapping work not only facilitated efficient data collection but also provided valuable insights into the spatial distribution of Morocco's population and economic activities., Supporting Development and Strategic Planning, The data gathered through the census will be instrumental in shaping Morocco's future policies. The information will help authorities assess the needs of the population and allocate resources in areas such as education, healthcare, employment, and housing. Additionally, it will contribute to the monitoring of sustainable development goals and the evaluation of public policies at both the national and local levels., The High Commission for Planning, which oversaw the census, emphasized that this massive statistical operation is not just about counting people but also about understanding Morocco’s social fabric. The data will provide critical insights into the country's demographic trends, migration patterns, literacy rates, and languages spoken, helping to guide long-term strategic planning., The budget for the Census 2024 is estimated to MAD 1.46 billion - the equivalent to around 135 million Euro., Transparency and Security, In line with international standards, the census maintained strict confidentiality of personal data. The High Commission for Planning assured the public that the information collected would be used solely for statistical purposes and not for legal or economic enforcement. The use of encrypted systems and secure data transmission methods further guaranteed the protection of respondents' privacy., Looking Forward, Now that data collection has concluded, the next phase involves processing and analyzing the information, with preliminary results expected in the coming months., The 2024 General Population and Housing Census will serve as a foundational tool for planning, allowing the Kingdom to address challenges and opportunities in the future., Statistical cooperation between Morocco and Denmark, For the past five years, Statistics Denmark has collaborated with Morocco's Haut-Commissariat au Plan (HCP), fostering a valuable exchange of best practices in statistics and digitalization. This partnership has involved joint efforts in IT, data management, and data quality improvement. During the census kick-off press conference in August, Moroccan Chief Statistician, His Excellency Minister Lahlimi, emphasized that the success of the highly digitalized RGPH 2024 would not have been possible without this vital cooperation., The collaboration between HCP and Statistics Denmark is financed by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the Strategic Sector Cooperation Programme., You can read more about the project between HCP and Statistics Denmark here: , https://www.dst.dk/en/consulting/projects/morocco-2024-2026,  , Source: This news article is written by Klaus Munch Haagensen based on information from the HCP web site.

The consumer price index has been calculated since 1914, but there are estimated figures for the development in consumer prices back to 1872. From January 1967 the index has been calculated on a monthly basis., Statistical presentation, The consumer price index shows the development of prices for goods and services bought by private households in Denmark. Thus, the index also covers foreign households' consumption expenditure in Denmark, but not Danish households' consumption expenditure abroad. The index shows the monthly changes in the costs of buying a fixed basket of goods, the composition of which is made up in accordance with the households' consumption of goods and services. The consumer price indices divided by group of households show the price development for different households. , The price indices for April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December 2020 and January, February, March, April, May and June 2021 are more uncertain than usual, as the non-response rate has been significantly larger than normal and some businesses have been shut down due to COVID-19., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The consumer price index is calculated on the basis of 23,000 prices collected from approx. 1,600 shops, companies and institutions throughout Denmark. Most prices are by far collected monthly. The data material received is examined for errors, both by computer (using the so called HB-method) and manually. The different goods and services, which are included in the consumer price index, are first grouped according to approx. 500 elementary aggregates for which elementary aggregate indices are calculated. The elementary aggregate indices are weighted together into sub-indices that are in turn aggregated into the total consumer price index. In calculating a price index it is assumed that the baskets of goods that are compared are identical, also with respect to the quality of the goods. Mainly indirect quality adjustment methods are being applied in the consumer price index in connection with changes in the sample. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The consumer price index is generally viewed as a reliable statistic based on the views of users., Important users are among others the Ministry of Finance, The Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Interior, The Danish Central Bank and private banks and other financial organizations., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, No calculation has been made of the uncertainty connected with sampling in the consumer price index as the sample is not randomly drawn, but the quality of the consumer price index is accessed to be high., In addition to the "general" uncertainty connected with sampling, there are a number of sources of potential bias in the consumer price index. One source is the consumers substitution between goods and shops and another source is changes in the sample (se chapter regarding "Non-sampling error")., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The consumer price index is published on the 10th or the first working day thereafter, following the month in which the data was collected. , The statistics are published without delay in relation to the scheduled date., The consumer price indices divided by group of households are published twice a year., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The consumer price index is related to the European Union harmonized consumer price index (HICP) and to the index of net retail prices. From January 2001, the only difference between the national consumer price index and the HICP is the coverage of goods and services, as owner-occupied dwellings is only recorded in the consumer price index and not in the HICP. The consumer price index is also related to the index of net retail prices. The two indices comprise the same groups of goods and services and are calculated according to the same methodology. Consequently, the only difference between the two indices is the price concept used, as indirect taxes and VAT are subtracted in the index of net retail prices, and the weighting., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are published monthly in a Danish press release and in the StatBank under , Consumer Price Index, ., Read more about accessibility and clarity
