520    Comprehensive and reliable statistics are crucial for 
       policy formulation in any region or country. The Kurdistan
       Region--Iraq (KRI) is hampered by the lack of such 
       statistics as it aims to improve infrastructure, encourage
       private-sector development, attract foreign investment, 
       and create a sustainable economy. The authors of this 
       study, which was funded by the Kurdistan Regional 
       Government (KRG), interviewed officials in several KRI 
       ministries, assessed available data within the KRI, 
       conducted cross-country benchmarking, and studied best 
       practices in data-collection methodologies. In this volume,
       the authors describe the KRG's statistical institutions; 
       identify ten high-priority areas for the KRI and the types
       of data that should be collected to support policymaking 
       in these areas; and outline a system to collect and 
       disseminate these data on an ongoing basis. The authors 
       conclude with a series of recommendations on the topics 
       that should be addressed by statistics legislation, the 
       structure and oversight of data institutions, the 
       implementation and use of surveys and censuses, and the 
       use of administrative data. Together, these 
       recommendations provide a road map that will help the KRG 
       assemble the core elements of a quality data system, which,
       in turn, will increase the availability of data to help 
       KRG leaders achieve their most important policy goals.
