Kazakhstan Statistical Data
In May 2005, The Agency of Statistics of the Republic of Kazakhstan opened the domain.
Evolving since the first official statistical body was created in 1920, the then-current Agency of Statistics had three main objectives:
- Formatting/standardizing statistical methodology for Kazakhstan;
- Implementing these methodologies within the parameters of the state-statistics principles;
- Providing statistical data and summaries for the Kazakh citizens, its government, and any international bodies seeking data on the Republic of Kazakhstan.
The functions of the Agency varied from oversight of data to ethical and privacy policing of official government data to implementation of research to gather data to providing reports to official bodies as well as the public on findings through data sets.
