Synopsis: The Internet is creating new opportunities for rapid access to
statistics. StatBase, which has been launched by the ONS, provides access to
a wide range of information about official data, as well as a key selection
of official statistics. NESSTAR is being developed to enable users to
identify and locate information across all the European social science data
archives. Both projects illustrate the potential for further development of
Web access."
