As I was saying to Deputy Durkan, it mainly relates to the CSO not just providing statistics and data; it is about giving insights on that data. That allows us to inform Departments in areas such as agriculture and transport that we are putting the right services into the right area. It deals with areas like people's transport movements, where they are living, where we need housing and where we need health care. It is really making sure we get the policy right.
