COMMISSION DECISION

of 8 September 2003

laying down a code and standard rules for the transcription into a machine-readable form of the
data relating to intermediate statistical surveys of areas under vines

(notified under document number C(2003) 3191)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2003/654/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 357/79 of 5
February 1979 on statistical surveys of areas under vines (1), as
last amended by Regulation (EC) No 2329/98 (2), and in parti-
cular Article 5(6) and Article 6(7) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

(2)

(3)

(4)

Commission Decision 80/765/EEC of 8 July 1980 laying
down a code and standard rules for the transcription
into a machine-readable form of the data relating to
intermediate statistical surveys of areas under vines (3)
has been substantially amended several times (4); in the
interests of clarity and rationality the said Decision
should be codified.

Regulation (EEC) No 357/79 requires the Member States
to submit to the Commission the information collected
in the framework of intermediate surveys of areas under
vines in the form of a schedule of tables broken down
by geographical units which shall be fixed in accordance
with the procedure laid down in Article 8 of the said
Regulation, i.e. by a Commission Decision following an
opinion from the Standing Committee on Agricultural
Statistics.

Member States which process their survey results elec-
tronically are required to submit these results to the
Commission in a machine-readable form. The codes for
transmitting survey results are also determined in accor-
dance with the procedure laid down in Article 8 of
Regulation 357/79 (EEC).

For practical reasons the Member States should forward
the data referred to in Article 6 of Regulation (EEC) No
357/79 also in machine-readable form.

(5)

The measures provided for in this Decision are in accor-
dance with the opinion of the Standing Committee for
Agricultural Statistics,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The machine-readable form for submission of the data provided
for in Articles 5 and 6 of Regulation (EEC) No 357/79 by those
Member States which process their survey results electronically
shall be magnetic tape.

Article 2

The code and rules governing the transcription onto magnetic
tape of the data provided for in Articles 5 and 6 of Regulation
(EEC) No 357/79 shall be as set out in Annexes I and II hereto.

Decision 80/765/EEC is repealed.

Article 3

The references made to the said repealed Decision shall be
construed as references to this Decision and shall be read in
accordance with the correlation table in Annex IV.

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

MAGNETIC TAPE SPECIFICATION FOR THE DELIVERY TO EUROSTAT OF THE DATA ON THE BASIC
SURVEYS OF THE AREAS UNDER VINES

ANNEX I

(Council Regulation (EEC) No 357/79)

GENERAL PROVISIONS

I. The information recorded in accordance with the characteristics referred to in Articles 5 and 6 of Regulation (EEC)
No 357/79 is to be delivered to Eurostat in the following form by those Member States which process their informa-
tion electronically:

1. The information shall refer to summaries of holdings if the survey is exhaustive (or to raised summaries of hold-

ings if the survey is based on random sampling) and not to individual holdings.

2. The information shall be delivered on nine-track magnetic tape/1 600 BPI (630 bytes/cm) standard label.

3. The information shall be of fixed record length consisting of 145 positions, and shall be recorded in EBCDIC.

4. The first two fields of each record shall contain information to permit identification. The first field (three posi-
tions) identifies the geographical unit, the codification of which is given in the detailed provisions and in Annex
II.

5. The second field (two positions) identifies the table in the schedule of tables provided for in Regulation (EEC) No

357/79. The codification of these tables is given in the detailed provisions.

6. The number and size of the fields in each record vary according to the table. If all the 145 positions are not filled

in the case of certain tables, the record shall be completed by blanks.

7. The information shall be entered right justified in each field and noughts added to fill in. If any optional informa-

tion is not supplied the record shall be completed by blanks in the corresponding bytes.

8. Surface area data shall be given in areas, production data in hl.

9. Member States shall have a choice of blocking factor and shall inform Eurostat which blocking factor has been

used.

10. The record shall be sorted according to geographical unit, table and changes in that order.

11. Standard administrative procedures governing the transmission of the magnetic tape files to Eurostat shall be

established jointly by Eurostat and the Member States.

II. The following pages give for each table and for the various items of a record:

(a) the codes which are to be used;

(b) the maximum number of digits required for the item in question;

(c) the consecutive numbering of the positions for the various items.

The first two fields of each record contain the following information:
