The consolidated 2013 Agency Release Calendar (ARC) for CAR can now be accessed online. The ARC is the schedule of releases of statistical outputs by a government agency. In particular, it is a matrix of what statistical output/data to be released; period covered by the data; geographic disaggregation; schedule of dissemination or when the data is available; form of output (whether available in hard or electronic copy or accessible thru the web/internet); and the contact persons and contact numbers.

 

The 2013 ARC of the region can be accessed at the ARC section on the NSCB-CAR website http://www.nscb.gov.phhttp://psacordillera.esy.es/arc.htm . For easy reference and navigation, drop-down menus are provided for each agency release calendar and for each month of the year.

 

The complete 2013 ARC document can be downloaded in two (2) PDF files: release calendar sorted by agency (http://www.nscb.gov.phhttp://psacordillera.esy.es/pdf/arc/ 2013ARC_byagency.pdf) and release calendar sorted by month of release (http://www.nscb.gov.phhttp://psacordillera.esy.es/pdf/arc/2013ARC_bymont... ).

 

The ARC is prepared annually by the National Statistical Coordination Board (NSCB) to promote transparency, timeliness, and accessibility of government statistics.
