Abstract

This paper presents technical assistance report on National Accounts Statistics mission in Botswana. The mission reviewed and suggested updates of two strategic documents pertaining to the rebase with the national accounts team. The first document broadly outlined the main objectives of a rebase and the key tasks. The second document concentrated on the more detailed implementation strategy. The timeline for the rebasing exercise was reviewed and agreed upon. The data input and processing system development is expected to be undertaken during 2023/24, commencing in May 2023. Therefore, the strategic documents, questionnaire design and sample frame need to be close to final by the end of April 2023. The national accounts team will need to start developing the information technology (IT) data processing system specifications so that in May 2023 they will have something to provide the IT consultant. It is recommended that Statistics Bostwana ensure that all of the required data is collected only once using the Agriculture Census form. Consequently, the national accounts team need to be involved in the development of the Agriculture Census form.
