Included in dashboard, but not index because of insufficient country coverage. This indicator is based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.2 (national statistical legislation compliance with UN Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics), existence of National Statistical Council, national statistical strategy generation, national statistical plan. Limited country coverage makes cross country comparison limited. A global database of statistical and data legislation and governance practice would be a valuable resource for capacity building in general not just for the SPI.
