Statement

<span>The methodology has been developed in accordance with relevant international documents on the list, namely Recommendations from EUROSTAT and Regulatory EC. </span>Administrative data with system-to-system solution. The current updating of the Civil Registration System takes place in the municipalities. The civil registration number and the updating of residence information and marital status information etc. is required for a vast number of public services, which serves as continuous validation of the content of the register. This also lies at the root of Statistics Denmark’s decision to use the civil registration data for production of the current statistics. Statistics Denmark is in dialogue with relevant authorities to ensure that the updating is correct at the municipal level e.g. regarding the registration of migrations.

The municipalities are responsible for registering residential addresses in the Civil Registration System. If a municipality suspect that a registered residence in the Civil Registration System (CPR) is incorrect, the municipality must look into the matter to ensure correct registration in CPR, cf. section 10(1) of the Executive Order on the Civil Registration System Act.

CPR has a number of incorporated consistency checks to ensure against registration of invalid values. Cancellations/corrections in CPR, which are registered by the municipalities, are updated in Statistics Denmark’s database as they arrive. The published population figures therefore show the population with as current and correct data as possible at the time of publication.

Statistics Denmark also performs a number of automatic checks to ensure the quality of the register and further checks in connection with the publication of the statistics. If relevant, inquiries from users may also give rise to checks.The statistics are based on the population registered in the Civil Registration System (CPR). Since correct registration in CPR is a condition for being able to lead a normal life in Denmark, the general quality and reliability of the register is regarded as very high.

Failure to report immigrations and emigrations means that the published population is considered to be overestimated by 10,000 people or 0.14 per cent.The statistics comply with the <a href=" https://www.dst.dk/Site/Dst/SingleFiles/GetArchiveFile.aspx?fi=formid&fo=dataconfidentiality--pdf&ext=%7b2%7d">Data Confidentiality Policy at Statistics Denmark</a>.  https://www.dst.dk/Site/Dst/SingleFiles/GetArchiveFile.aspx?fi=formid&fo=dataconfidentiality--pdf&ext=%7b2%7d The table on population size by grid has been assessed as not posing any privacy problems, which is why the table has not undergone any data treatment.
