At this stage, the fieldwork team and the tools (questionnaires, maps, sample lists) were prepared.

They cover a wide range of errors, including errors resulting from non-response, sample frame coverage, data processing and response (both respondent and interviewer-related).  The use of effective training and supervision and the careful design of questions are measures that have direct bearing on the magnitude of non-sampling errors and, hence, on the quality of the resulting data"}},"data_access":{"dataset_use":{"conf_dec":[{"txt":"General Statistics Law No. (5) for Year 2000\n\nArticle (17)\n1.
