Estimation for Short Term Statistics

Economic processes taking places in the EU markets require systematic changes that will facilitate the international exchange of socio-economic information. All this creates a need for modification of the business statistics information system. System modification is just one element of transformations undertaken by the Central Statistical Office aimed at reforming most of its surveys. These changes focus among other things on exploiting administrative sources for purposes of public statistics. Participation of Poland in the MEETS program offered a unique chance to take steps towards a reform of the present state of business statistics. The results obtained in the MEETS program study was the basis for this article. The objective of the paper was to present the possibility of using administrative registers to short term statistics in the light of DG1 survey.
