The method of statistical determination of smallest bans of probability measures on discrete spaces is offered. Consistency of the constructed estimates is shown. The application of the received estimates for testing of statistical hypotheses in the discrete spaces is constructed. It is shown that estimates of bans can generate consistent sequences of criteria in some sense.
