Each member state of the European Union (EU) is responsible for conducting periodic censuses and disseminat-ing the results. There also exists a statistical office of the European Union, named Eurostat, situated in Luxembourg. The task of Euro-stat (http: //epp. eurostat. ec. europa. eu/portal/page/portal/about_eurostat/introduction) is to "provide the Euro-pean Union with statistics at Euro-pean level that enable comparisons between countries and regions." A recent project in this direction is the Census Hub, a framework for the dissemination of detailed census data for all EU member states.
