Rebuilding the Statistical System for a Growing Demand Jorge Todesca for LA NACIÓN WEDNESDAY 12 JULY 2017
Rebuilding the statistical system for a growing demand Jorge Todesca FOR LA NACIÓN WEDNESDAY 12 JULY 2017 The National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INDEC) has released the results of a Consumer Price Index (CPI) with national coverage, that will provide price information on the whole country and each of the six statistical regions: Greater Buenos Aires, Cuyo, North-east, North-west, Pampas and Patagonia. This launch represents a milestone in the road of the current administration: today, no one can argue that a national price indicator is a right and, for this reason, overcoming the previous unsuccessful attempts has been an aspiration that meant the great effort of a large team of professionals, technicians and survey-takers of 24 jurisdictions. Additionally, it will consolidate the reintegration of the institute in the statistical world: we are on the path to aiding the accession of Argentina as a full member of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). This is directly linked to one of the pillars of the work programme proposed by INDEC for the 2017-2020 period, which precisely sets out to deepen the mechanisms of multilateral and bilateral co-operation with the global statistical community, to achieve alignment with the highest international standards in terms of statistics. The 2030 agenda For the last 18 months, the institute has been committed to the goals set forth in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and has actively participated in the annual meetings of the United Nations Statistical Committee, the Statistical Conference of the Americas of ECLAC (Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean) and the Specialised Meeting on Statistics of Mercosur, among other specialised forums.

Unofficial Translation of the Letter from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the Eritrean Diaspora Tax in Europe Report
Unofficial translation of the letter from the Dutch ministry of Foreign Affairs on the Eritrean diaspora tax in Europe report The original Dutch letter can be found here: https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/documenten/kamerstukken/2017/09/18/kamerbrief-over-eritrese- diasporabelasting To: Chair of the second chamber of the Dutch Parliament Date: 18 September 2017 Subject: Eritrean diaspora tax in Europe Dear Chair, In a letter to your Chamber on 15 December 2016 (“Eritrea and the influence of Eritrea in the Netherlands”, kst 22831-125), the Cabinet stated that it would commission a study into the diaspora tax in several European countries. This study was requested by your Chamber as per the motion 119 of Parliament member Karabulut (Kst 22 813-119). The research has now been completed and the Cabinet hereby presents the research report, titled “The 2% Tax for Eritreans in the diaspora”.1 The DSP-research, background and methodology In 2016, several options were explored for investigating “the nature and extent of the diaspora taxation in the European context”, as was requested in the motion. Contact with the European External Action Service (EEAS) in Brussels and with the relevant EU member states showed that there was no political support, or a sense of priority, for a common European study into this subject from other member states. Following this, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs commissioned its own study in seven countries. This study was executed by the DSP-groep in Amsterdam in cooperation with European External Policy Advisors (EEPA) in Brussels and the Tilburg University. The DSP-groep has previously produced a qualitative study into the integration of Eritreans and issues in the Eritrean community in the Netherlands for the Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment.

NRC Handelsblad: [Affaire des produits dérivés] Les banques vont à l’encontre de l’avis du ministre en rejetant les arrangements avec les PME. * * * Missions militaires : L’AD indique en Une que le VVD souhaite envoyer des militaires néerlandais en Libye, tandis que son partenaire de coalition PvdA est plutôt favorable à un prolongement de la mission néerlandaise au Mali. Selon le VVD, les Pays-Bas pourraient jouer un rôle dans la lutte contre le terrorisme et l’endiguement du flux des réfugiés en Libye, « une idée qui s’aligne sur la position du dirigeant VVD Halbe Zijlstra qui souhaite renforcer la frontière sud de l’Europe ». Le député PvdA, Michiel Servaes, ne voit pas partir les troupes néerlandaises vers la Libye : « Nous sommes d’accord pour soutenirle gouvernement d’union nationale mais pas avec des troupes au sol ». Le Volkskrant publie en Une un article sur le manque de personnel et de matériel qui force le ministère de la Défense à réduire le déploiement de l’armée néerlandaise à l’étranger.
