Govt preparing to conduct pilot population census in Dec 2019

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has instructed the State Statistics Service to conduct in December 2019 a pilot population census in the Obolonsky district of Kyiv and the Borodianka district of Kyiv region using innovative technologies for collecting information from the public.

According to an Interfax-Ukraine reporter, such a decision was adopted at a government meeting on Wednesday.

According to the decision, the government instructed the concerned district administrations to contribute to the preparation and conduct of a pilot census.

In addition, the National Police of Ukraine was tasked with ensuring safety and order during the pilot population census.

As reported, in April 2018, the Cabinet of Ministers set up an interdepartmental commission to promote the holding of the nationwide census, which will work out proposals on the timing and options for conducting a pilot population census.

The commission will then put forward proposals on selecting the option of holding the census in 2020.
