Official statistics: forthcoming publications

Twelve month calendar of Scottish Government statistical releases in spreadsheet format including both Official and National Statistics publications.


Next update: 30 March 2023

We provide a 12 month calendar of our statistical releases in spreadsheet format. This includes both Official and National Statistics publications. The month of the publication is provided at least twelve months before the publication. An exact date and publication time is provided around four to six weeks before final publication. This is in line with the requirements of the Code of Practice for Statistics.

The timetable below also includes releases for other statistics producers in Scotland, such as NHS Information Services Division and National Records of Scotland, as well as Crown and Arms Length Bodies.

To sort the forthcoming publications spreadsheet:

  1. ​Download and open the spreadsheet in Excel.
  2. Select the whole table.
  3. Go to 'Data' tab.
  4. Click on 'Sort' and then e.g. 'by publication date'
  5. When prompted select 'sort anything that looks like a number, as a number'.
  6. Please note that the publication date column contains exact dates for publications that will be published in the next 4 to 6 weeks. It also has the month and year for publications that are planned for release within 12 months. This column will also show whether a publication has been delayed or cancelled.
