Relevance - data completeness rate (for data producers)

Ratio of the number of data cells provided to the number of data cells required or relevant. The ratio is computed for a chosen dataset and a given period.

For a specific key variable this indicator can be calculated in two forms: a) for data producers, and b) for data users. The indicator shows to what extent statistics are available compared to what should be available. For producers, It can be used to evaluate the degree of compliance by a given Member State for a given dataset and period. For users, it can be used to: identify whether important variables are missing for some individual Member State or alternatively; give users an overall measurement (aggregate across countries and/or key variables) of the availability of statistics. The indicator should be accompanied by information about which variables are missing and the reasons for incompleteness as well as, where relevant, the impact of the missing data on aggregates, and plans for improving completeness in the future.
