Most governments have now found it essential to gather, statistics on at least some, aspects of the industrial sector of their economy. The extent to which they have developed, the collection of these types of statistics has varied greatly depending upon a number of factors. Generally, the most important single factor has been the degree of industrialization achieved in the, particular country. However, it is not only to governments of highly developed and industrialized economies to which statistics of industrial activity are important. All governments need data on the role, structure and activities of the industrial sector of the economy in order to assess and encourage industrial growth and stability. Further, for purpose of international action in this field, some of these data are needed on an internationally comparable basis.
