David Matz, who chairs the RSS Official Statistics Section, introduced this RSS 2017 Conference session discussing trust in official statistics.
Ian Simpson from NatCen began the session with findings from the British Social Attitudes (BSA) survey, which revealed that the ONS was more trusted than many other public bodies. However, much work remains to be done in raising public trust in how official statistics are used, as a mere 26% of respondents felt Government presented official figures honestly and only 18% felt the media did so.
