ANNEX II

Metadata on the topics referred to in Article 6

Member States shall transmit to the Commission (Eurostat) textual metadata on the definitions referring to the census topics.

For each topic, the metadata shall:

| — | name the data source(s) used to report the statistical data on the topic; |
| --- | --- |

—

name the data source(s) used to report the statistical data on the topic;

| — | report on the methodology used to estimate data on the topic; |
| --- | --- |

—

report on the methodology used to estimate data on the topic;

| — | report on the reasons for any unreliability of the data on the topic. |
| --- | --- |

—

report on the reasons for any unreliability of the data on the topic.

In addition, Member States shall provide the following metadata:

Place of usual residence

The metadata shall explain in which way the definition of ‘usual residence’ of Article 2(d) of Regulation (EC) No 763/2008 has been applied, in particular to what extent the legal or registered residence has been reported as a substitute for the usual residence according to the 12 months criterion, as well as a clear definition of the concept adopted for the resident population.

The metadata shall report if third level students whose term-time address is not the one of their family home have been considered to have their usual residence at their family home.

The metadata shall report on any other country-specific application of the rules for the ‘special cases’ listed in the technical specifications for the topic ‘Place of usual residence’ in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/543.

Homeless

The data on total population shall include all primary homeless persons (persons living in the streets without shelter) and all secondary homeless persons (persons moving frequently between temporary accommodation).

The metadata shall report the number of all homeless persons. The numbers of primary homeless persons (persons living in the streets without shelter) and of secondary homeless persons (persons moving frequently between temporary accommodation) shall be shown where this distinction is possible.

A description of the methodology and data sources used to produce the data on homeless persons shall be provided.

Legal marital status/partnerships

The metadata shall report on the relevant legal basis in the Member State concerning opposite-sex and same-sex marriages, the minimum age for marriages, opposite-sex and same-sex registered partnerships, and the possibility to divorce or legally separate.

Economic topics

The metadata shall report on any country-specific application of the rules listed in the technical specifications for the topic ‘Current activity status’ in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/543. The metadata shall report whether the current activity status has been reported on the basis of registers, and, if this is the case, on the relevant definitions used in this register.

The metadata shall report on the national minimum age for economic activity in the country, and the relevant legal basis.

Where the census in the Member State identifies persons doing more than one job, the metadata shall describe the method used to allocate them to their main job (for example, on the basis of time spent on the job, income received).

The metadata shall report on any country-specific application of the rules listed in the technical specifications for the topic ‘Status in employment’ in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/543. Where the census in the Member State identifies person who are both, employer and employee, the metadata shall describe the method used to allocate them to one of the two categories.

Country/place of birth

For censuses for which no or incomplete information is available on the country of birth according to international boundaries existing at the time of the census, the metadata shall inform about the methodology used to allocate persons within the breakdown of the topic ‘Country/place of birth’.

The metadata shall report if information on the place where the birth took place was used as a substitute for the place of usual residence of the mother at the time of the birth.

Country of citizenship

In countries where a part of the population are persons who are ‘Recognised Non-Citizens’ (that is persons who are neither citizens of any country nor stateless and who have some but not all of the rights and duties associated with citizenship), the metadata shall provide relevant information.

Place of usual residence one year prior to the census

Where the census in the Member State collects information on the topic ‘Previous place of usual residence and date of arrival in the current place’, the metadata shall describe any methodology used to report on the place of usual residence one year prior to the census.

Household and family topics

The metadata shall specify whether the census in the Member State applies the ‘housekeeping’ or the ‘household-dwelling’ concept to identify private households. The metadata shall report on the method used to generate households and families.

The metadata shall report on the way the relationships between household members are identified (e.g. relationship matrix; relation to reference person). If these data are obtained from administrative registers, it shall be reported whether information on the relationship between household and family members is recorded in and obtained directly from the administrative source(s), or whether this information is based on a statistical model.

Type of ownership

The metadata shall explain and provide examples of the ownership types under national property laws or customs that have been classified under ‘Dwellings in other types of ownership’.

Useful floor space and/or number of rooms of housing unit, density standard

The metadata shall report on the application of the concept of either ‘useful floor space’, or ‘number of rooms’ as appropriate, and on the definition adopted for the corresponding measurement of the density standard.
