The quality and publication of Official Statistics of Finland are guided by the recommendations of the Advisory Board of Official Statistics of Finland.
The quality criteria are compatible with the European Statistics Code of Practice and define what kinds of issues must be taken into account in the quality of statistical products.
The recommendation on quality description (in Finnish and Swedish only) defines how the quality of statistics should be described when publishing statistics. The release guidelines provide instructions on the modes of publishing, on the data given to users and on the data presentation modes.
The most important practical guidelines and recommendations based on legislation have been included in the recommendations concerning data protection (in Finnish and Swedish) only).
