Courrier des statistiques N8 - 2022
With this latest edition, the Courrier des statistiques releases its eighth issue. The review once again aims to address some major issues
faced by official statistics, using an educationally-oriented tone.
This eighth issue of the Courrier opens with a piece on the Trajectoires et Origines (TeO) survey, which, in a unique manner, explores how the origins of immigrants or
children of immigrants influence their trajectories and living conditions. The second
article provides an analysis of the field of statistics dedicated to local authorities.
Registers are in the spotlight in the next five articles. After defining registers,
these "repositories that are essential and yet little understood" as standardised
and living information systems, the following two articles take us into the intertwined
worlds of the National Register for the Identification of Individuals (RNIPP) and
the National Identification Management System (SNGI). We then leave the realm of individuals
to take an interest in companies, with SIRUS, the statistical business register, which
is an essential tool for business statisticians. Finally, the last article introduces
us to a unique feature of the French statistical system, with the presentation of
the Permanent Equipment Database (BPE).
