5Stocktake for the digital nation domain plan 2018
Purpose and scope
The Stocktake for the digital nation domain plan 2018 provides an overview of the currently
available ‘digital technologies’ statistics and data. The information sets included in the stocktake are
relevant to three key enduring questions and a list of enduring supplementary questions. The
stocktake is a collection of metadata for the datasets that inform these enduring questions.
Information in the latest stocktake will be used to help identify gaps, overlaps, and deficiencies in
current data. This will allow us to seek initiatives to address the issues we have with our ability to
measure the progress of digital transformation across New Zealand.
The stocktake will feed into the Digital nation domain plan, which is a joint initiative by Stats NZ and
the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. The domain plan is scheduled to be published
in June 2018.
Summary
The stocktake presents a comprehensive overview of data and information currently available that
inform three key enduring questions, and the 35 supplementary enduring questions. These
questions were identified by stakeholders and industry experts from a series of workshops held
during 2016 and 2017 (see appendix 4: Stocktake stakeholders).
All three enduring questions are informed by supportive data or measures. Almost 80 percent of the
supplementary enduring questions are referenced in the stocktake as having data that may inform
or provide contributory statistical measures. This data (or information) is held by 11 government
agencies and by 14 other organisations and institutions from outside government. Stats NZ is a
significant steward of relevant data that helped inform these questions.
Scope
To keep the domain plan and stocktake manageable, the stocktake is limited to official statistics (as
defined in the Statistics Act 1975), statistics produced by Crown research institutes (CRIs), and the
data used to compile these statistics. The stocktake also limited to statistics that can be used to build
a national picture.
The stocktake was compiled with the cooperation of many data custodians, including government
agencies and CRIs. We would like to acknowledge their participation and support for the domain
plan.
Research reports, administrative data, previously compiled stocktakes, lists of databases or
metadata in any storage formats, information published pre 2006 and planned or incomplete work,
are out of scope for this stocktake. The stocktake primarily focuses on data that is actively
maintained.
We include 36 information sets that were considered highly relevant to the enduring questions of
the Digital Nation Domain Plan but lay outside the scope of the stocktake:
appendix 1: Other data sources –administrative data
appendix 2: Other data sources – one-off reports
appendix 3 Other data sources – data not from central government agencies.
While we have taken every care to include all relevant datasets, we acknowledge the stocktake may
not be complete. This may be because this stocktake may not reflect the current fast moving data
and information environment.
6Stocktake for the digital nation domain plan 2018
Next steps
The stocktake provides a foundation for the next stage of the Digital nation domain plan process.
The value of the stocktake lies in the support it provides for the gap analysis work that will be
undertaken, see figure 1, Phases for completing Digital nation domain plan.
Figure 1
Now that we have compiled a stocktake of information and data about the digital nation, we will
analyse how well the official data informs our enduring, and supplementary, questions. The Digital
nation domain plan aims to identify information needed to better measure the progress of digital
transformation and prioritise any new initiatives that come out of the findings
For each of the supplementary enduring questions and for each of the datasets, the subject experts
will be asked ‘How well does this dataset inform us about that question?’ They will also be asked,
overall considering all datasets, ‘How well informed is this question?’ The summary of the results of
that analysis will be presented in the Digital nation domain plan.
7Stocktake for the digital nation domain plan 2018
Three key enduring questions
The data sources in the stocktake are relevant to the following key enduring questions, and their
associated supplementary enduring questions.
Enduring question 1: How are New Zealanders engaging with digital
technologies?
This question provides the base-level information that supports all other enduring questions. Here,
we define the nature and size of New Zealand’s digital transformation, and assess how it is changing
over time.
Supplementary enduring questions
1.1. What digital technologies are being created by New Zealanders?
1.2. What digital technologies are being used by New Zealanders?
1.3. How are digital technologies being used by New Zealanders:
1.3.a. to connect with and communicate with others?
1.3.b. to connect with and express cultural identity?
1.3.c. for leisure?
1.3.d. for creative and artistic purposes?
1.3.e. for trading goods and services?
1.3.f. to improve educational and skills attainment?
1.3.g. to improve employment outcomes?
1.3.h. for managing finances?
1.3.i. to improve health outcomes?
1.3.j. to improve environmental outcomes?
1.3.k. to access public services?
1.3.l. for democratic and civic participation?
1.4. How are digital technologies being used by New Zealand organisations:
1.4.a. to introduce new or significantly improved goods or services?
1.4.b. to improve production or delivery methods?
1.4.c. to improve business practices, workplace organisation, or external relations?
1.4.d. to promote, market, and sell products or services?
1.4.e. to access public services and comply with laws and regulations?
Enduring question 2: What is the impact of New Zealanders engagement
with digital technologies?
This question will provide us with information about the importance and value of digital
transformation. Crucially, we do not expect all the impacts to be positive: jobs may disappear, new
forms of crime may emerge, inequality may widen. By answering these questions, we will be in a
better position to mitigate these negative effects, while promoting the positive outcomes.
8Stocktake for the digital nation domain plan 2018
Supplementary enduring questions
2.1. In what ways are the use and creation of digital technologies affecting:
2.1.a. New Zealand’s production and productivity?
2.1.b. New Zealand’s exports and international connectivity?
2.1.c. structural changes in the economy (new firms, new industries, new exports, and
new ways of working)?
2.1.d. the material welfare of New Zealanders?
2.1.e. the health and wellbeing of New Zealanders?
2.1.f. New Zealand’s natural environment?
2.1.g. New Zealand’s culture and creative output?
2.1.h. the civic and democratic engagement of New Zealanders?
2.1.i. Māori and Pacific development?
2.1.j. tegional development?
Enduring question 3: What limits New Zealanders engagement with digital
technologies?
The final question will address the barriers to New Zealanders engagement with digital technologies.
Policy-makers may desire greater levels of uptake in pursuit of particular goals, and this question
identifies where the barriers to that uptake lie.
Supplementary enduring questions
3
3.1 To what extent are New Zealanders aware of the availability and potential uses of digital
technologies?
3.2 To what extent do New Zealanders have trust and confidence to make full use of digital
technologies?
3.3 To what extent do New Zealanders have the skills and capabilities to make full use of digital
technologies?
3.4 To what extent do New Zealanders have access to the infrastructure needed to make full use of
digital technologies?
3.5 To what extent do New Zealanders have access to the finance needed to make full use of digital
technologies?
3.6 To what extent does the regulatory environment and government support the use of digital
technologies?

Objective Official quarterly statistics produced from the Linked employer-
employee data (LEED) measure labour market dynamics, providing an
insight into the operation of New Zealand's labour market. Stat NZ
releases other official labour market statistics which show changes in
employment at an aggregate level. New statistics from LEED (ie job and
worker flows) help explain what causes these aggregate movements
and are therefore useful for explaining changes in the labour market.
LEED uses existing administrative data drawn from the taxation system,
together with business data from Statistics NZ's Business Frame (BF).
The LEED dataset is created by linking a longitudinal employer series
from the BF to a longitudinal series of Employer monthly schedule
(EMS) payroll data from Inland Revenue.
Data collected (key LEED provides statistics on filled jobs, job flows, worker flows, mean
variables, outputs) and median earnings for continuing jobs and new hires, and total
earnings.
