Use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and e-commerce activity by UK businesses.
E-commerce is having a huge impact on the way we do business. It can lead to dramatic growth in trade, increase markets, improve efficiency and effectiveness and can transform business processes.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) developed the e-commerce survey to help measure the UK's progress in the use of ICTs and the growth of e-commerce. The survey is now conducted as part of a Eurostat initiative to measure the impact of ICT and e-commerce activity across EU member states and the UK has been heavily involved in the development of the survey at an international level.
These National Statistics are produced to high professional standards and released according to the arrangements approved by the UK Statistics Authority.
