Law 12/1989, of 9 May (modified in the BOE 08-07-2022), on the Public Statistical Services (LFEP) are the basic legal regulations for carrying out the statistical activity in the General State Administration. According to the LFEP, the public statistical function in the scope of the GAS is developed by the National Statistics Institute (INE); the ministerial department units and those of any other public institutions dependent on them, to whom that function has been entrusted, and the High Council on Statistics.
