Last week, we marked a major milestone – the 20th anniversary of the European Statistics Code of Practice – with a two-day event at the European Commission in Brussels. The participants included the heads of Eurostat, the European Central Bank’s Directorate-General Statistics, the national statistical institutes (NSIs) that compose the ESS, and the NSIs of the enlargement countries, together with chairs and members of the European Statistical Advisory Committee, European Statistical Governance Advisory Board, EU’s Economic and Financial Sub-Committee on Statistics, European Broadcasting Union, and other national statistical authorities. It was a moment to celebrate how far we have come as the European Statistical System (ESS), united by our shared commitment to quality, professional independence and trust in European official statistics. Over the past two decades, the Code has strengthened confidence in public data and set the standard for statistical excellence across Europe and the world. In his opening address, European Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis, who is responsible for Eurostat, underlined that: “Over the last twenty years, thanks to the Code of Practice and the ESS peer review mechanism, the ESS has become a European success story, respected and admired worldwide.” Throughout the discussions, we reflected on key themes, including: • “Celebrating the memories” – why the Code was created and how it has reshaped the ESS, enhancing quality and strengthening trust through independence, integrity and accountability. • The vital role of professional independence in maintaining trust among stakeholders, and how this independence is respected and upheld in practice across national statistical authorities. • How digital technologies – including AI – and a fast-changing data landscape can be reflected in the Code to keep it relevant for the future. As we celebrate this milestone, I thank all colleagues who have shaped and upheld the Code over the past two decades. Together, we will continue to reflect and evolve to keep the Code a living standard, ensuring that quality, professional independence and trust remain at the heart of European official statistics. I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to all panellists, participants and organisers for their valuable contributions, and for making this anniversary a true celebration of collaboration and shared purpose. The anniversary event affirmed that maintaining trust in statistics is not a one-time achievement, but an ongoing commitment we renew, together, every day. #EuropeanStatistics #20yearsCOP #ESS #AskEurostat #OfficialStatistics #ProfessionalIndependence #AI #DataQuality
