Sex Biases in Data Collection
In May 2000, the Prime Minister’s Office issued a Directive on the integration of sex-disaggregated statistics in policy and planning gender-sensitive development programs/projects.
In January 2005 the Prime Minister’s Office issued an additional Notification on the implementation of sex-disaggregated statistics in order for all sectors to widely apply in their real practice.
