The results are used to publish findings in our Annual Review and Impact Report, to measure trends and gain insights into areas that are working well and where improvements could be made around ONS secure data provision.

SRS Newsletter: Have your say
We are keen to develop this newsletter communication to offer you what you are most interested in. In order to do this, we need feedback from you and other members of the research community.
We've created a short survey to give you the opportunity to share your views. There are only three questions and it shouldn't take more than a few minutes to complete.
MBS Construction Dataset now in the SRS
You can now find 'Monthly Business Survey for Construction and Allied Trades' in the SRS.
The Monthly Business Survey (MBS) for Construction and Allied Trades collects information about the value of work undertaken by GB businesses on new housing, new infrastructure, other new construction projects, and repair and maintenance during the month. Information about employment is also collected quarterly. The information is used to monitor the performance of the industry and contributes to gross domestic product (GDP).

Research Project Accreditation Example Application
To access secure research data in a safe setting provided by a DEA Accredited Processor, researchers must submit a research project or exploratory analysis accreditation application. This can be done in parallel with the Accredited Researcher application process.
The UK Statistics Authority have provided an example application, designed to be used alongside the Research Project Accreditation Application Guidance, also available on the UK Statistics Authority website. This guidance provides researchers with examples of how best to complete a Research Project Application Form, to be assessed by the Research Accreditation Panel.
