Why are data used in policy making?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To understand the actual situation and people’s needs

Correct answer: A, to understand the actual situation and people’s needs. Data means organised information, such as the number of affected people, school attendance, disease cases, income levels, or access to services. Policymakers study such information to understand the size of a problem, identify groups that need help, set realistic priorities, and later check whether a programme produced improvement. A is correct because data provide evidence for informed policy decisions. B is wrong because publicity may communicate a scheme, but it is not the main reason for collecting or analysing data. C is the opposite of good policy making: decisions should be based on studying the problem. D is wrong because data do not automatically cancel laws; legal changes require proper constitutional and legislative processes. Memory cue: data turn a general complaint into measurable evidence.
