CLF Census Event 7 October 2010

On 7 October 2010 CLF, supported by Local Government Public Affairs and ESRO, hosted a deliberative event on the 2011 Census.

The event was well attended by experts from across the country including Professor Tony Travers of the London School of Economics, Professor Ian Diamond, Vice Chancellor of the University of Aberdeen and Peter Benton, Deputy Director of the Census department of the Office of National Statistics.

During the course of the discussion a number of key themes emerged including: how to encourage compliance and community engagement, how ONS would negotiate with local authorities regarding adjustments to the figures and how to tackle the issue of hidden migrant groups.

A summary report which captures these issues and responses from ONS is available here.
