Stats SA prepares to collect comprehensive Income and Expenditure information across the country.

Stats SA prepares to collect comprehensive information on household income and expenditure by visiting over 31 000 dwelling units across the country during the Income & Expenditure Survey (IES 2022/23).

The IES 2022/23 is a household-based sample survey specifically designed to collect detailed household income and expenditure information needed to measure and profile poverty and inequality in the country. The data collected from the survey is essential in providing evidence-based information for monitoring the main NDP targets of reducing the Gini coefficient to 0,60, and the population living below the lower-bound poverty line (LBPL) to 0%, by 2030.
