Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics Executive Director Mario Marazzi questioned the government’s plans to consolidate that public agency with the sole purpose of outsourcing its services down the road.
The Puerto Rico Private Sector Coalition stepped up in defense of the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics over the weekend, claiming that it is “critical to have a body that ensures the independence and transparency of metrics and government statistics to provide complete, reliable, fast and universal data.”
The Board of Directors of the Puerto Rico Institute of Statistics announced Monday the appointment of Mario Marazzi-Santiago as executive director for a second 10-year term.
