The new French population census


This paper by the National Institute for Statistics and Economic Studies (INSEE), France, is describing the setting up a new census in France. A law describing the principles of this census was passed in February 2002. It will be a "rotating" Census, with annual collections and recourse to a sample survey. The first wave of collection will take place in January-February 2004. As from 2008, it will provide data on the legal population and annual statistical results.

Paper presented at the Joint ECE-EUROSTAT Work Session on Population and Housing Censuses (Ohrid, The former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, 21-23 May 2003).
