  • The Bureau was founded in 1899. Prior to that year, statistical publications were compiled by the ‘Centrale commissie voor de statistiek’, the ‘Vereniging voor staathuishoudkunde en statistiek’ and various government departments. These activities have gradually been taken over and coordinated by the Central Bureau, which now compiles practically all government statistics.
