## Description

Population statistics are vital to our country, nationally, locally and within communities\. Once every ten years the census provides an opportunity to build a detailed and comprehensive picture of the nation\. The census is for everyone\. The whole population has the chance to provide the information which can help to ensure their communities are well served\. Only the census provides consistent statistics for both small areas and small population groups across England and Wales\. When combined with data from similar censuses taken in Scotland and Northern Ireland it provides a picture for the United Kingdom\. All this information is the foundation for national and local policy, for planning and for targeting resources\. Without this national and local information on the population, people's characteristics, education, working life and health, our public services and businesses cannot properly serve our communities\. The general public have to have confidence that the information they provide to ONS, as part of their census return, is secure\. This procurement seeks to provide that assurance\.
