    Reason for change

    The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic presents a significant challenge. We are working with UK businesses to get the information we need to produce high quality statistics to inform decision-making. Unfortunately, the disruption caused by the pandemic means we need extra time to quality assure some of our data before publication. Therefore, we are announcing a delay to our E-commerce and ICT activity 2019 publication date, to allow us additional time for data processing and quality assurance, to ensure the highest possible level of accuracy.
