Issues arising Inappropriateness of some of the Bristol indicators to
the national situation (particularly housing and sanitation) (global vs. national standards)
Limitation in restricting statistical analysis to DHS data (richer and more recent sources available
Data from DHs (2004/5) and HBS (2000/1) now quite dated; results of new HBS expected in 7/08
Unwieldy/overly complex guidelines /templates and tables
Some requested data (particularly on budgets) impossible to get
Policy processes and links to action not a straightforward as guidelines suggest
Unwise separation of statistical and policy teams (as policy team also working on ‘evidence’)
