Better Data for Britain: Securing commercial data partnerships to deliver better statistics for better decisions.

About ONS ONS is the UK's largest independent producer of official statistics and is the recognised national statistical institute for the UK. Formally, it is the executive office of the UK Statistics Authority, a non-Ministerial Department established by the Statistics and Registration Service Act 2007. It is responsible for collecting and publishing statistics related to the economy, population and society at national, regional and local levels. It also conducts the Census in England and Wales every ten years. ONS plays a leading role in national and international good practice in the production of official statistics.
