1945

This, the third revision of Principles and Recommendations for a Vital Statistics System, was submitted to the United Nations Statistical Commission at its forty-fourth session in 2013 and formally adopted at its forty-fifth session in 2014. It is the most recent in a series of updates of the principles and recommendations for a vital statistics system first published in 1953. The first revision was published in 1973; and the second revision was issued in 2001. The present set of principles and recommendations provides guidance on establishing a functioning system for collecting, processing and disseminating vital statistics; improving sources of vital statistics, primarily the functioning of the civil registration system and its components; and the role of complementary sources of vital statistics, such as population censuses, household surveys and public-health records.
