Statistics Cooperation with the Central Statistics Office

The Central Bank and Central Statistics Office (CSO) each collects, produces and disseminates statistics under the relevant EU and national law framework. The Central Bank and the CSO are both committed to enhancing collaborative mechanisms and ensuring the appropriate modalities of cooperation between them, and to delivering on the needs for a consistent, high quality suite of macroeconomic and financial statistics in Ireland. The Central Bank and CSO have established an Economic Statistics MoU, which outlines the responsibilities, working arrangements and a set of principles governing the relationship between the organisations.
