The ECA secretariat has done much work on external trade statistics- in- the region but the usefulness of this work has been very limited largely because of (a) the frequent lack of knowledge regarding the quality of the material used and (b) the lack of sufficient relevant up-to-date information. For example, in respact of 18 countries of the region --here is no commodity by country data whatever available to the secretariat, and in respect of a large number of the other countries the explanatory notes provided include very limited,information regarding the published material
