Definition: Restriction based disclosure control method

Category: Statistical methodologies

Method for the release of tabular data, which consists in reducing access to the data provided to the external user. This method reduces the content of information provided to the user of the tabular data. This is implemented by not publishing all the figures derived from the collected data or by not publishing the information in as detailed a form as would be possible. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/SDC_Handbook.pdf
