HIES 2005-2006

The Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) 2005/6 is the second and comprehensive nation-wide survey conducted by the Solomon Islands Statistics Office (SISO) of the Department of Finance and Treasury. The first survey was conducted in 1992 and was limited in scope and coverage.

This survey was an initiative of the Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC)’s Solomon Islands Statistics Development Project (SISDP) and the Government of the Solomon Islands. It was aimed to strengthen and revitalize the national statistical system and to ensure the regular production and release of core socio-economic statistics on a timely and regular basis.

The primary objectives of the HIES were to provide data required for rebasing the weights of the consumer price index (CPI) and updating the national accounts of the country. The secondary objectives include the provision of data for poverty assessment and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and for all relevant cross sectional policy and planning purposes.
