The latest Reform of the State
“Interfederalisation of the National Statistical Institute”
“Incorporation of the Regions in the National Accounts Institute”
Cooperation Agreement between the Federal State and the Regions
![Page 12: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Coordination and quality in complex statistical systems
Opportunities: Specialisation → high-quality staff, good
knowledge of the field Proximity → data collection quality, high relevance
![Page 13: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Coordination and quality in complex statistical systems (2)
Risks: Regional decentralisation → heavier political
interference Functional decentralisation → diverging quality
standards
![Page 14: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Coordination and quality in complex statistical systems (3)
Remedies: Cooperation Coordination Quality assurance
Hierarchy or network?
![Page 15: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Governance models for the Belgian system
Minimalist model: a copy of the NAI Maximalist model: a new cooperation
structure Intermediate models: a Belgian compromise?
![Page 16: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Governance models:the minimalist model NAI stays in place Statistical Coordination Committee as a copy
of the NAI Empty box Board takes decisions Rotating chairperson Scientific Committees

The minimalist model: advantages and disadvantages
Advantages: Has been tested within the NAI Politically acceptable Easily implemented
Disadvantages: Not in line with the revision of Regulation 223 Misses the opportunity to use the momentum
![Page 19: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Governance models:the maximalist model New distribution of competences
Federal: coordination, methodology, quality control, representation on international forums, national accounts, analysis and studies on federal competences,…
Regional: regional statistics, analysis and studies on regional competences,…
Network: data collection, ICT, data warehousing, relation to external databases,…
![Page 20: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Governance models:the maximalist model (2) Free exchange of microdata within the entire
network Strong coordination and clearing structures. New supervisory body (‘Council of the BSS’)
with two chambers: a scientific chamber and a policy chamber, replacing the Higher Council and the Coordination Committee..

The maximalist model: advantages
Advantages: Clear delineation of competences Strong cooperation between the levels Strong coordination at the federal level Shared responsibility for quality Central management for quality control
![Page 23: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The maximalist model: disadvantages
Disadvantages: Not tested Need for a long-term step-by-step plan New institutional approach Political acceptability not ensured.
![Page 24: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Outcome of theReform of the State
Starting from the minimalist approach New coordinating body: Interfederal
Statistical Institute Equal representation Rotating presidency Shared responsibility for budget and staff
![Page 25: New models of governance and coordination in complex statistical systems](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081512/56815f3f550346895dce158d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Conclusions and outlook Coordination, but how?
Hierarchic approach Network-like approaches with shared
responsibilities And in Belgium?
Will the governance model prove to be robust? If necessary: to be adapted and strengthened All partners must safeguard independence and
quality
