I always assumed stats would be doing things the best way, I took a job there to see how things should be done.
I realised I had made a mistake pretty quickly! I think they only just recently started to measure homes built by CCC being issued rather than by consent being issued - bananas!
Lot's of data that informs govt is quite old and low quality, I spend a lot of my time in my current role pushing for higher quality and more accessible data.
