Public urged to take part in survey
The Minister of Policy and Reform says information to be gathered in the Household Income and Expenditure Survey is crucial to the economic future of the Island.
Members of the public are being urged to take part once it's released in March.
Responses are used to calculate important economic statistics, including how much the Island receives in VAT, as well as inflation measures such as Consumer Price Index and Retail Price Index.
Chris Thomas is reassuring the public the information they submit will be treated in the strictest confidence:
