COMMISSION REGULATION (EC) No 1668/2003
of 1 September 2003
implementing Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97 with regard to the technical format for the transmission of the structural business statistics and amending Commission Regulation No 2702/98 concerning the technical format for the transmission of structural business statistics
THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97 of 20 December 1996 concerning structural business statistics ( 1 ), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1667/2003 ( 2 ), and in particular Article 12 (viii) thereof,
Whereas:|
(1) |
Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97 established a common framework for the production of Community statistics on the structure, activity, performance and competitiveness of the banking and the pension fund sector in the Community. |
|
(2) |
In order to facilitate the transmission of statistics on environmental expenditure, the technical format provided for by Commission Regulation (EC) No 2702/98 of 17 December 1998 concerning the technical format for the transmission of structural business statistics ( 3 ), as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1614 /2002 ( 4 ), should be adjusted. Regulation (EC) No 2702/98 defined the technical format for the transmission of the structural business statistics characteristics listed in the common module and the detailed modules for industry, distributive trades and construction of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97. It is necessary to amend this technical format in order to take account of the addition of characteristics on environmental expenditure as well as the addition of the breakdown by environmental domains for some characteristics of the detailed module on industry of Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97. |
|
(3) |
It is necessary to specify the technical format for the transmission of structural business statistics on credit institutions and pension funds listed in Annexes 6 and 7 to Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 58/97 in order to produce data comparable and harmonised between Member States, to reduce the risk of errors in the transmission of data and to increase the speed with which the data collected can be processed and made available to users. It is necessary to define another technical format for the transmission of the characteristics of the detailed modules on credit institutions and pension funds as the technical format defined in Regulation (EC) No 2702/98 for the transmission of the characteristics of the common module and the detailed modules on industry, distributive trades and construction provides for a different breakdown of results. |
|
(4) |
The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Statistical Programme Committee, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Annex to Regulation (EC) No 2702/98 is amended in accordance with Annex I to this Regulation.

ANNEX II
TECHNICAL FORMAT FOR STATISTICS ON CREDIT INSTITUTIONS
1. The form of the data
The data is sent as a set of records of which a large part describes the characteristics of the data (country, year, economic activity etc.). The data itself is a number which can be linked to flags and explanatory footnotes used for example to describe aggregations of NACE codes. Confidential data should be sent with the true value being recorded in the value field and a flag indicating the nature of the confidential data being added to the record.
In order to be precise about the nature of the data, it is necessary to distinguish the following special cases:
— data equal to zero (coded ‘0’): real values of zero only (the phenomenon it describes does not exist in the country),
— missing data (coded ‘m’): this is data which is currently missing but the Member State intends to supply when available,
— data not available: this is data which is not collected in a Member State. In this case, the corresponding record is not sent.
By default, if an entire dimension (a variable, a NUTS code, a Size Class code etc.) is not collected then the corresponding records will not exist (except for those which are missing because they form part of a regrouping of NACE codes. This is why it is important to distinguish data which is really missing by supplying a record (one per missing item) in which the data value is coded as ‘m’, and data which is really equal to zero by supplying the corresponding records in which the data value is set to 0.

3.11. Data value
Monetary data is expressed in millions of national currency units or in euro (for countries members of the Euro-zone).
In order to be precise about the nature of the data, it is necessary to distinguish the following cases:
— data equal to zero (coded ‘0’): real values of zero only (the phenomenon it describes does not exist in the country),
— missing data (coded ‘m’): this is data which is currently missing but the Member State intends to supply when available,
— data not available: This is data which is not collected in a Member State. In this case the corresponding record is not sent.
By default, if an entire dimension (a variable, a NUTS code etc.) is not collected then the corresponding records will not exist except for those which are missing because they form part of a regrouping of NACE codes. This is why it is important to distinguish data which is really missing by supplying a record (one per missing item) in which the data value is coded as ‘m’.

Revised data |
R |
|
Updated data |
M |
|
Provisional data |
P |
Revised data refers to data which are sent for a second (or more) time and are corrections of data which has been previously sent.
Updated data concerns data which was not previously available and was coded as missing in the data value field (see 3.11 above) but has since become available.
The flag indicating provisional data should be used in order to indicate that it is likely that the data being transmitted may be corrected.
3.13. Confidentiality flag
Member States are asked to clearly indicate confidential data using the flags listed below:
Countries which cannot send confidential data are asked to set the value to ‘x’ (see 3.11 above) and to indicate using a flag that the data is missing due to confidentiality.

Reason for confidentiality |

Too few enterprises |
A |
|
One enterprise dominates the data |
B |
|
Two enterprises dominate the data |
C |

D |
3.14. Dominance
A numeric value less than or equal to 100. This indicates the percentage dominance of one or two enterprises which dominate the data and make it confidential. The value is rounded to the nearest whole number: e.g. 90.3 becomes 90, 94.50 becomes 95. This field is blank for non-confidential data. This field is only used when the confidentiality flags B or C are used in the previous field.
3.15. Footnote
Free note on the data with a maximal length of 250 characters.
4. Electronic form
The data and metadata, supplied in conformance with this regulation shall be sent in electronic form from Competent National Authorities to Eurostat. Transmission shall conform to an appropriate interchange standard approved by the Statistical Programme Committee (SPC). Eurostat will make available detailed documentation in relation to approved standard(s) and will supply guidelines on how to implement this (these) standard(s) according to the requirements of this regulation.
5. Transitional arrangements
During a transitional period, the data may be sent as a flat file in ASCII format with each data set being one record having the semi-colon ‘;’ as the field seperator and the the carriage return character (ASCII hexadecimal code ‘0D’) and/or the linefeed character (ASCII hexadecimal code ‘0A’) as the record separator.

ANNEX III
TECHNICAL FORMAT FOR STATISTICS ON PENSION FUNDS
1. The form of the data
The data is sent as a set of records of which a large part describes the characteristics of the data (country, year, economic activity etc.). The data itself is a number which can be linked to flags and explanatory footnotes used for example to describe aggregations of NACE codes. Confidential data should be sent with the true value being recorded in the value field and a flag indicating the nature of the confidential data being added to the record.
In order to be precise about the nature of the data, it is necessary to distinguish the following special cases:
data equal to zero (coded ‘0’): real values of zero only (the phenomenon it describes does not exist in the country),
missing data (coded ‘m’): this is data which is currently missing but the Member State intends to supply when available,
data not available: this is data which is not collected in a Member State. In this case, the corresponding record is not sent.
By default, if an entire dimension (a variable, a NUTS code, a Size Class code etc.) is not collected then the corresponding records will not exist (except for those which are missing because they form part of a regrouping of NACE codes. This is why it is important to distinguish data which is really missing by supplying a record (one per missing item) in which the data value is coded as ‘m’, and data which is really equal to zero by supplying the corresponding records in which the data value is set to 0.

3.11. Data value
Monetary data is expressed in millions of national currency units or in Euro (for countries members of the Euro-zone).
In order to be precise about the nature of the data, it is necessary to distinguish the following cases:
data equal to zero (coded ‘0’): real values of zero only (the phenomenon it describes does not exist in the country),
missing data (coded ‘m’): this is data which is currently missing but the Member State intends to supply when available,
data not available: This is data which is not collected in a Member State. In this case the corresponding record is not sent.
By default, if an entire dimension (a variable, a NUTS code etc.) is not collected then the corresponding records will not exist except for those which are missing because they form part of a regrouping of NACE codes. This is why it is important to distinguish data which is really missing by supplying a record (one per missing item) in which the data value is coded as ‘m’.

Revised data refers to data which are sent for a second (or more) time and are corrections of data which has been previously sent.
Updated data concerns data which was not previously available and was coded as missing in the data value field (see 3.11 above) but has since become available.
The flag indicating provisional data should be used in order to indicate that it is likely that the data being transmitted may be corrected.
3.13. Confidentiality flag
Member States are asked to clearly indicate confidential data using the flags listed below:
Countries which cannot send confidential data are asked to set the value to ‘x’ (see 3.11 above) and to indicate using a flag that the data is missing due to confidentiality.

A numeric value less than or equal to 100. This indicates the percentage dominance of one or two enterprises which dominate the data and make it confidential. The value is rounded to the nearest whole number: e.g. 90.3 becomes 90, 94.50 becomes 95. This field is blank for non confidential data. This field is only used when the confidentiality flags B or C are used in the previous field.
