Historically the E-commerce and ICT survey collected data to meet Eurostat regulation requirements. As such the questions within the survey changed each year depending upon Eurostat requirements. The survey collects data on aspects of electronic commerce as well as broader use of information and communication technology by businesses. The data are also used for UK policy purposes. The Ecommerce survey was paused after the publication of the 2019 results to allow redevelopment during 2021 with a full review of the data collected. This refocussed the survey on UK user requirements. The survey was relaunched as the Digital Economy Survey with new questions. The survey was despatched in Feb 2022 collecting data for the 2021 reference period.
