Information available or the margin of error places the threshold in question as in the case of filipino where there was a difference in the threshold and certification after we validate the data we issue written notification to all City Departments as with the original amendment in 2009, 18 months to implement citywide. Were very pleased this year to to be able to certify filipino as a language. Now the margin of error is plus or minus 930 and this is the specific reason why ocea wanted to do a baseline study. And at that time the 2000 census provided a lot more detailed information there were a hundred questions on the long form and changed the process of collection collecting data in 2010 with only 10 short questions on the census form so it didnt give us any information and this is why we felt in order for City Departments to properly provide Language Services to the filipino population the study was necessary. Just to share with you quickly the methodology for the study is 3 fold.
