design for the post enumeration survey. Mr Howard Hamilton led the development of
the computer processing system and procedures assisted by Mr Boyd Goodin, Data
Processing Manager. The process of data cleaning and correcting is being led by
programmers Miss Rene Stewart, Miss Tannecia Blackwood and Miss Marsha South.
The members of staff of the Censuses Division who continue to be involved in that
process and whose contribution is gratefully acknowledged are Miss Maureen Falloon,
Miss Wendy Wignall, Mr Chad Bennett, Mr Kenardo Williams, Miss Daviena Williams,
Miss Stacyann Spence and Miss Latoya Hutchinson. Mrs Stacey-Ann Reece-Cleveland
former member of the team is also recognized. Miss Heatha Miller, Manager of
Information and Marketing has had responsibility for the well-planned and executed
publicity programme. Transport of supplies and materials to the local offices was
directed by Miss Icylin Cooper, Administrator, while payments to the over 6,000
temporary personnel was the responsibility of Census Finance Officer, Mrs Moreen
Samuels and her team. Mr. Michael Thompson, Printing Supervisor, coordinated the
printing of all manuals, administrative forms and documents. Special thanks and
gratitude to Mr Garfield Atkinson, Statistical Officer in the Censuses Division who
provided invaluable service in guiding the process of delivery of materials and supplies
to the area offices and the collection of completed work. Many of the Statisticians formed
the core group of trainers and undertook the training of the Mangers, Area
Coordinators, Zone Supervisors and Census Takers. They also provided invaluable
support in undertaking quality checks of completed documents during the field
enumeration. STATIN’s Field Supervisors acted as Regional Managers and Area
Coordinators while other members of the staff worked as Census Takers and
Supervisors.
The Statistical Institute adopts this medium to express its sincere thanks to the public for
cooperating in this exercise. To the news media for their support; to the over six
thousand persons including teachers, civil servants and persons from the private sector
who served as Area Coordinators, Zone Supervisors and Census Takers. These persons
faced many difficulties while serving; poor weather conditions, dogs and a fairly high
level of apathy. Sincere thanks also to the drivers and office staff in all sections of the
Institute and in particular the clerical staff of the Censuses Division, for their
participation in this programme.
