7 Organisation of the Dutch Statistics An independent and powerful Statistics Netherlands (CBS – Central Bureau of Statistics) was originally the only provider of statistics. Computerized registration systems: more timely, detailed (and reliable?) data provided by ministries (and other organisations) themselves Changing role CBS: –Surveys –Combining data from different areas

13 Characteristics of the Dutch Statistics No link between police statistics and prosecution / court statistics Counting units are complicated, in this regard voegingen (combining cases) is particularly problematic Statistics are Criminal Code oriented: –Offence type can change –No link with crimes as seen by public (or policy makers) Hardly any victim data
