Session: Administrative Data Research, Part 2

Time: Wednesday 6th July, 11:15 - 12:45

Convenor:

Professor Peter Smith (University of Southampton)

Abstract Details

Administrative data are collected by government departments and other organisations for the purposes of registration, transaction and record keeping, usually during the delivery of a service. As they contain a wealth of information, there has recently been much interest in making use of administrative data for research purposes, particularly by linking different datasets.

Following on from Administrative Data Research Part 1, this session will continue with more examples of administrative data research, again with the focus on how the methodological challenges were overcome.
