Report
The 2006 Household Income and Expenditure Survey (2006 HIES) was initiated by Vanuatu National Statistical Office (VNSO) to review its income and expenditure patterns for the national accounts system, to update the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and subsequently revise its Gross Domestic Products (GDP).
Although the 2006 HIES is primarily designed to satisfy the data requirements of the Vanuatu NSO, it is also expected to provide benchmark data for the Millennium Challenge Accounts' (MCA's) infrastructure projects for its impact assessment on the rural economy.
The main objectives of the survey are:
(a) To obtain expenditure weights and other useful data for the up-dating of the basket and weight of the CPI;
(b) To supplement the data available for use in compiling official estimates of household accounts in the systems of national accounts;
(c) To supply benchmark data needed for assessment for MCA infrastructure projects;
(d) To provide data for assessing the impact on household living conditions of existing or proposed economic and social measures, particularly changes in the structure of household expenditures and in household consumption;
(e) To supply basic data needed for policy making in connection with social and economic planning; and
(f) To gather information on poverty lines and incidence of poverty for determining nutritional level of people.
