THE EXECUTIVE BOARD OF THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, and in particular Article 5.1 and 5.2, and Articles 12.1 and 14.3 thereof,


Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 479/2009 of 25 May 2009 on the application of the Protocol on the excessive deficit procedure annexed to the Treaty establishing the European Community (1),


Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European system of national and regional accounts in the European Union (2),

Whereas:







(1)


To fulfil its tasks, the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) needs comprehensive and reliable government finance statistics (GFS), inter alia, for monetary and economic analysis, monitoring the sustainability of public finances and preparing forecasts.












(2)


Under Article 8 of Guideline ECB/2013/23 (3), the Executive Board of the European Central Bank is entitled to make technical amendments to the Annexes to Guideline ECB/2013/23, provided that such amendments neither change the underlying conceptual framework nor affect the reporting burden.












(3)


Changes to the reporting requirements under Guideline ECB/2013/23 are necessary in order to achieve greater harmonisation of data sources across euro area Member States and across datasets. This will enable a more thorough analysis and facilitate the comparison of annual and quarterly statistics with forecasts of the same variables.












(4)


Therefore, Guideline ECB/2013/23 should be amended accordingly,





HAS ADOPTED THIS GUIDELINE:



Article 1
