EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM 

1)  CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL 

110 

•  Grounds for and objectives of the proposal 

The  statistical  classification  of  economic  activities  known  as  NACE  Rev.  1  was 
established in 1990 for the harmonisation of economic statistics. A revised version of 
NACE is proposed, which takes into account the development of the economy during 
the  last  15  years  and  a  major  revision  of  other  international  classifications  of 
activities. 

120 

•  General context 

130 

141 

Some minor amendments to NACE Rev. 1 have been introduced since its adoption in 
1990.  The  revised  version  is  motivated  by  the  important  changes  in  the  economy 
since  1990  and  a  major  revision  of  international  classifications  of  activities:  as  a 
result,  the  proposed  NACE  Rev.  2  is  more  relevant  with  respect  to  the  economic 
reality and more comparable with other international classifications.  

•  Existing provisions in the area of the proposal 

Council  Regulation  (EEC)  N°  3037/90  on  the  statistical  classification  of  economic 
activities in the European Community: it established NACE Rev. 1. 

•  Consistency with other policies and objectives of the Union 

Not applicable. 

2)  CONSULTATION OF INTERESTED PARTIES AND IMPACT ASSESSMENT 

•  Consultation of interested parties 

211 

Consultation methods, main sectors targeted and general profile of respondents 

Several  consultations  have  been  organised  since  2002,  including  with  National 
Statistical Institutes, as well as European business and trade associations, asking for 
proposals and modifications of NACE Rev. 1.  

212 

Summary of responses and how they have been taken into account 

All  proposals  (more  than  2000)  have  been  considered  and  analysed  by  groups  of 
technical experts.  

•  Collection and use of expertise 

There was no need for external expertise. 

•  Impact assessment 

229 

230 

The  first  option  was  to  revise  NACE  according  to  principles  of  relevance  with 

EN

economic reality, comparability with other international classifications, and continuity 
with the previous classification.  

The  only  alternative  option  was  not  to  modify  the  classification.  This  would  have 
prevented comparability of statistics with other economies and would have resulted in 
statistical information that was not adequate to the current needs. 

3)  LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL 

•  Summary of the proposed action 

Establishment of a revised classification of economic activities and provisions for its 
implementation in current statistical surveys.  

•  Legal basis 

Article 285(1) of the EC Treaty. 

•  Subsidiarity principle 

The  proposal  falls  under  the  exclusive  competence  of  the  Community.  The 
subsidiarity principle therefore does not apply. 

•  Proportionality principle 

The proposal complies with the proportionality principle for the following reasons. 

The  proposed  Regulation  includes  a  provision  which  allows  Member  States  to 
establish a national statistical classification consistent with NACE, allowing them to 
meet the specific needs of their national economy.  

The present proposal represents a balance between the level of detail requested by the 
main users and the workload in the statistical institutes. 

•  Choice of instruments 

Proposed instruments: Regulation. 

Other means would not be adequate for the following reason. 

The proposed Regulation is amending existing Regulations.

Proposal for a 

REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL 

establishing the statistical classification of economic activities NACE Revision 2 and 
amending Council Regulation (EEC) N° 3037/90 as well as certain EC Regulations on 
specific statistical domains 

(Text with EEA relevance) 

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 

Having  regard  to  the  Treaty  establishing  the  European  Community,  and  in  particular 
Article 285(1) thereof, 

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission1, 

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty, 

Whereas: 

(1) 

(2) 

(3) 

(4) 

Council  Regulation  (EEC)  N°  3037/90  of  9  October  1990  established  the  statistical 
classification of economic activities in the European Community2 (hereinafter referred 
to as “NACE Rev. 1”).  

In  order  to  reflect  the  technological  development  and  structural  changes  of  the 
economy,  an  up-to-date  classification  should  be  established,  to  be  called  NACE 
Revision 2 (hereinafter referred to as “NACE Rev. 2”). 

An  up-to-date  classification  as  NACE  Rev.  2  is  central  to  Commission’s  ongoing 
efforts  to  overhauling  Community  statistics;  it  is  expected  to  convey,  through  more 
comparable and relevant data, a better economic governance at EC and national levels.  

In order to function, the internal market requires statistical standards applicable to the 
collection,  transmission  and  publication  of  national  and  Community  statistics  so  that 
undertakings, financial institutions, governments and all other operators in the single 
market can be provided with reliable and comparable statistical data. To this scope, it 
is  vital  that  the  various  categories  of  the  classification  of  activities  in  the  European 
Community be interpreted uniformly in all the Member States.

(9) 

Reliable and comparable statistics are necessary to enable undertakings to assess their 
competitiveness, and is useful to the Community institutions in preventing distortions 
of competition. 

The establishment of a revised common statistical classification of economic activities 
does  not  per  se  oblige  Member  States  to  collect,  publish  or  supply  data.  Only  if  the 
Member  States  use  classifications  of  activities 
the  Community 
classification is it possible to provide integrated information with the reliability, speed, 
flexibility and degree of detail required for the management of the internal market. 

linked 

to 

Provision should be made for the Member States to be able, in order to meet national 
requirements,  to  insert  in  their  national  classifications  additional  categories  based  on 
the statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community.  

The international comparability of economic statistics requires that the Member States 
and  the  Community  institutions  use  classifications  of  economic  activities  which  are 
directly  linked  to  the  International  Standard  Industrial  Classification  of  all  economic 
activities  (ISIC)  Rev.  4,  as  adopted  by  the  Statistical  Commission  of  the  United 
Nations3 .  

Use  of  the  classification  of  economic  activities  in  the  Community  requires  that  the 
Commission  be  assisted  by 
the  Statistical  Programme  Committee  set  up 
by Council Decision 89/382/EEC, Euratom4 in particular as regards the examination of 
problems  arising  from  implementation  of  NACE  Rev.  2,  the  smooth  transition  from 
NACE Rev. 1 to NACE Rev. 2, as well as the incorporation of amendments to NACE 
Rev. 2. 

(10)  Council  Regulation  (EEC)  N°  2186/93  of  22  July  1993  established  a  common 
framework  for  setting  up  statistical  business  registers  with  harmonised  definitions, 
characteristics, scope and updating procedures5. 

(11)  The establishment of a revised statistical classification of economic activities implies 
to modify specifically the references to NACE Rev. 1 as well to amend a number of 
relevant instruments. It is therefore necessary to amend Regulation (EEC) N° 3037/90, 
as  well  as  Council  Regulation  (EEC)  N°  3924/91  of  19  December  1991  on  the 
establishment  of  a  Community  survey  of  industrial  production6,  Council  Regulation 
(EC,  Euratom)  N°  58/97  of  20  December  1996  concerning  structural  business 
statistics7,  Council  Regulation  (EC)  N°  1165/98  of  19  May  1998  concerning  short 
term  statistics8,  Council  Regulation  (EC)  N°  1172/98  of  25  May  1998  on  statistical 
returns  in  respect  of  the  carriage  of  goods  by  road9,  Council  Regulation  (EC)  N°

(13)  The measures necessary for the implementation of this Regulation should be adopted 
in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the 
procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission19.
