Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The Plenary of the Liberian Senate has mandated its Committee on Autonomous Commission & Agencies to recite the Liberia Institute of Statistics and Geo-Information Services (LISGIS).<\/p>\n

The Committee will recite LISGIS to discuss and address all the challenges that will lead to the Senate\u2019s intervention for the conduct of the National Census.<\/p>\n

In its decision, the Plenary mandated the Committee on Judiciary to be added to the Committee on Autonomous Commission & Agencies and instructed that LISGIS be brought back before the Committee to discuss all of the debatable issues, which arose in Plenary as a result of recommendations contained in the report and revert to Plenary in two weeks with the necessary advice.<\/p>\n

The findings contained in the report, which was presented to the Plenary on Tuesday indicated that based on the exchanges with the Director-General, Francis Wreh and other authorities, it was realized that even though a census has not been held since 2008, LISGIS as a statistics and survey house has been conducting some surveys for the purpose of generating national database.<\/p>\n

These, according to the Committee, include Composite, Core Welfare Indicator Questionnaire, Labor Force and Human Rights Surveys (2010 and 2016\/2017), Demographic and Health Surveys (2013 and 2019\/2020) and Household Income and Expenditure Surveys (2014-2016).<\/p>\n

Accordingly, the Committee report also revealed that even though there is a basket fund created for the Census to be managed by the UNFPA where financial contributions to the Census are lodged, US$8m contributed by the World Bank is being lodged with the Public Financial Management Unit (PFMU) at the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning.<\/p>\n

Also, according to one of the findings contained in the report, the pre-requisite or pre-test activities for the Census have been completed including the training of Census Enumerators and Supervisors.<\/p>\n

The exchanges further disclosed that the budget for the Census nationwide is US$23.2m, about US$16.6m has been received by LISGIS and expended to procure materials for the = census activities.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the Committee mentioned that the Government of Liberia is expected to come forth with its direct budget support to LISGIS with a total payment of US$3.7m.<\/p>\n
