might be collected by another, or there might be duplication of efforts or jurisdictional
concerns. Therefore, a coordinating mechanism for the development and
implementation of EISD might be needed to facilitate coordinated activities among
major players.
It might, therefore, be desirable to set up a body to liaise
with all of the relevant
organizations in the country and to coordinate their activities with the EISD effort.
This national coordinating mechanism could take the form of a working group or
committee based on existing institutional arrangements where possible, using the
experience and expertise of extant organizations and making use of the widest
possible consultation and participation of all stakeholders involved. The mechanism
should be flexible and transparent. Such an effort should help to avoid duplication,
inconsistencies and unnecessary data collection. It should also facilitate the
incorporation of the analysis of these indicators into a
broader range of ongoing
statistical programmes.
Countries might need to invest in improving their energy and other related statistics to
take full advantage of the EISD. This includes improved data collection, monitoring
and analysis at the national and regional levels. Missing data might need to be
collected or derived. Data compilation and interpretation might need to be improved.
This will require training and an assessment of the resources involved, including the
cost of new data collection.
