行政数据变得越来越重要。它们通常是某些业务活动的副作用，通常被视为比其他数据来源具有重大优势。虽然这类数据确实有其优点，但统计人员在分析这类数据时，应像分析任何其他来源的数据一样，持谨慎和批判的态度。本文件指出了一些统计方面的挑战，目的是激发关于行政数据的辩论并改进对行政数据的分析，并鼓励方法研究人员探讨这些数据所产生的一些重要统计问题。
Administrative data are becoming increasingly important. They are typically the side effect of some operational exercise and are often seen as having significant advantages over alternative sources of data. Although it is true that such data have merits, statisticians should approach the analysis of such data with the same cautious and critical eye as they approach the analysis of data from any other source. The paper identifies some statistical challenges, with the aim of stimulating debate about and improving the analysis of administrative data, and encouraging methodology researchers to explore some of the important statistical problems which arise with such data.
