Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva More demands on demographic information More data: detailed population stocks and demographic flows (citizenship, country of birth, flows by origin and destination), causal analysis, etc. More sub-populations : foreign population/population born abroad, with the same breakdowns as for the total population. More frequency: the stronger the intensitiy of phenomena the more frequent the data dissemination on it should be. More geographical breakdowns. More coherence ( between geographical levels, between flows and stocks).

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva 2.-Monthly external emigration flow Emigration flows to abroad of foreign citizen registered in the Padrón through actions carried out directly by the municipalities. –Exact date of the departure is unknown, imputation is based on an uniform distribution of the emigration time between his last movement registered in the Padrón central database (which confirms the stay in the country) and the date of the ex oficio deregistration. –Then, same procedure previously presented

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva Emigration flows to abroad of foreign citizen registered in the Padrón through actions carried out directly by the municipalities.

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva 2.-Monthly external emigration flow Emigration flows of non EU citizen without permanent resident permit registered in the Padrón through expiry procedure. Foreigners that don´t have a permanent residence permit have to re-register themselves in the Padrón every two years. Eu citizens and non-EU citizens with permanent resident permits are not concerned by this regulation.

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva 2.-Monthly external emigration flow Emigration flows of non EU citizen without permanent resident permit registered in the Padrón through expiry procedure. Four steps –Estimation of the number of records that are going to expire in the following 24 months (these would be situations that affect variations that happened in the past) –Estimating which of the records that are going to expire in the following 24 months will be finally confirmed The average percentage of confirmed exits over the total expired registrations in past months with almost definitive results of the expiry procedure is used as estimator. –Now we need to estimate the real emigration date of estimated exits. –Finally, a smoothing procedure is made over the resulting shape of the time distribution

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva Emigration flows of non EU citizen without permanent resident permit registered in the Padrón through expiry procedure.

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva 2.-Monthly external emigration flow Emigration flows of EU citizen not included in previous groups (non registered in the Padrón). The estimated percentage of EU citizens migrating abroad time after their arrival is got from a survey The migration calendar of UE citizens are estimated trough the smoothed distribution of emigration date respect to the time of residence in Spain. The estimated percentage of UE citizens migrating abroad and the estimated calendar of emigration give the monthly emigration flow of UE citizens not registered by Municipalities.

Joint UNECE/Eurostat Work Session on Migration Statistics, April 2010,Geneva Some final conclusions Monthly Demographic Now Cast comes to provide advanced and accurate estimates of monthly demographic events, few time after the reference date (only one month, in case of migrations). Work to be done: –Do we select properly the type of variations in Padrón that represent migrations? –Are any of this type of variations under or over represented in our register? And if yes, in a different way in wich we do things?
