Abstract
In the context of frequentist inference there are strong arguments in favour of data reduction by both (a) conditioning on the most appropriate ancillary statistic and (b) restricting attention to a minimal sufficient statistic. However, significantly for the study of the foundations of frequentist inference, there are some examples in which the order of application of these data reductions has an important bearing on the statistical inference of interest. This paper presents a new simple example of this kind.
