Title: CANCELLED - Sharing Frame Information To Improve Coverage and Reduce Cost and Duplication of Effort
Author(s): Paula Weir

Abstract:

The Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act (CIPSEA) of 2002 encourages federal statistical agencies to seek to improve their efficiency continuously. However, only the U.S. Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor Statistics, and Bureau of Economic Analysis are authorized specifically to share data---and only business data---for exclusively statistical purposes. The cost of frames construction and maintenance and the increased difficulty of frames construction in a more complex world at a time of limited resources demands efforts on sharing frame information be examined in a broader context and new approaches sought. This roundtable will provide a forum for an informal discussion of this topic to spur new ideas and identify partners seeking solutions that both protect confidential information and foster efficiency for sharing information for frames.
