EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 

The European system of  national and regional accounts in the European Union (ESA 2010) 
came into force in 2013. Many Member States were granted temporary derogations from the 
ESA 2010 data transmission requirements until 2020. 

This  document  reports  on  data  availability  developments  in  Member  States  since  the 
introduction  of  the  ESA 2010  transmission  programme  in  September  2014  and  presents  the 
results of Eurostat’s analysis of the application of the derogations. 

Chapter  1  outlines  the  legal  basis  for  the  report.  The  data  transmission  requirements,  data 
availability and developments by Member State are presented in chapter 2. Chapter 3 sets out 
the  results  of  the  ‘derogation  dashboard’  (a  tool  to  track  Member  States’  progress  on  their 
work on derogations). Chapter 4 sets out the results of a verification in the summer of 2017 as 
to  whether outstanding derogations were  still  justified. Chapter  5 describes the action taken 
by Eurostat to improve data availability. Chapter 6 provides a summary and conclusions. 

Data availability monitoring shows clear improvements in data availability between October 
2015 and January 2018. There is a clear trend of data gaps being closed and full sets of data 
now being delivered. 

There has also been a strong shift between end-2015 and end-2017 as regards the derogations 
from the data transmission requirements – over half are now considered closed.  

A questionnaire on the verification of the derogations expiring in 2018-2020 concluded that 
67 % are still valid and can remain unchanged. The remaining derogations can be closed in 
advance or reduced in scope. 

Eurostat is continuously monitoring data availability. It has offered Member States technical 
cooperation  and  financial  support  (grants)  with  a  view  to  improving  data  availability  and 
lifting  the  derogations.  In  cases  of  missing  data,  issues  are  addressed  bilaterally  as  soon  as 
possible. 

To  summarise,  data  availability  improved  significantly  between  October  2015  and  January 
2018.  In  most  cases,  the  Member  States  have  resolved  the  issues  that  gave  rise  to  the 
derogations  that  expired  in  2017.  In  addition,  a  significant  number  of  Member  States  have 
started providing (part of) the data covered by derogations even before the first transmission 
date laid down in Decision 2014/403/EU.1 The Commission will amend that Decision to take 
account of changes in the justifications for outstanding derogations. 

1   2014/403/EU:  Commission  Implementing  Decision  of  26  June  2014  on  granting  derogations  to  Member 
States  with  respect  to  the  transmission  of  statistics  pursuant  to  Regulation  (EU)  No  549/2013  of  the 
European Parliament and of the Council concerning the European system of national and regional accounts 
in the European Union (OJ L 195, 2.7.2014, p. 1).

1.   BACKGROUND AND LEGAL BASIS 

Regulation (EU) No 549/2013  on the European system of national and regional accounts  in 
the  European  Union2  (ESA 2010  Regulation)  provides  for  a  methodology  on  common 
standards,  definitions,  classifications  and  accounting  rules  for  the  compilation  of  national 
accounts (Annex A) and a transmission programme setting out deadlines by which Member 
States have to transmit accounts and tables to Eurostat in accordance with the methodology 
(Annex B). 

In principle, the Member States were required to apply ESA 2010 in their national accounts 
data  transmissions  to  Eurostat  from  1  September  2014  onwards,  but  Article 6  of  the 
Regulation  allowed  them  to  apply  for  temporary  derogations  from  the  transmission 
requirements. 

Transmissions  under  the  ESA 2010  transmission  programme  have  now  been  made  for  over 
three years. Eurostat assesses Member States’ data availability and the state of play on their 
derogations on an annual basis. 

The  Regulation  requires  the  Commission  to  present  two  reports  on  its  monitoring  of  data 
availability and derogations to the European Parliament and the Council by 1 July 2018: 

 

under  Article  6(3),  it  must  report  on  the  application  of  the  derogations,  in  order  to 
verify whether they are still justified; and 

 

under Article 12, a second report should evaluate the application of the Regulation: 

‘By  July  2018  and  every  five  years  thereafter,  [the  Commission]  shall  submit  a 
report  on  the  application  of  this  Regulation  to  the  European  Parliament  and  the 
Council. The report shall evaluate, inter alia: 

(a)   the quality of data on national and regional accounts; 

(b)   the  effectiveness  of  this  Regulation  and  the  monitoring  process  applied 

to the ESA 2010; and 

(c)   the  progress  on  contingent  liabilities  data  and  on  the  availability  of 

ESA 2010 data.’ 

As  the  two  reports  are  to  be  submitted  at  the  same  time  (1  July  2018),  for  the  sake  of 
efficiency Eurostat proposes to combine them in a single report covering both the application 
of ESA 2010 and the derogations. This will be relatively short; further details will be set out 
in two accompanying staff working documents (SWDs) on: 

(a)   ESA 2010 data quality; and 

(b)   ESA 2010 data availability and the application of the derogations. 

2   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 (OJ L 174, 26.6.2013, p. 1).

This document is the SWD referred to in point (b). It covers data availability developments in 
the  Member  States  since  the  introduction  of  the  ESA 2010  transmission  programme  in 
September 2014  and  presents  the  results  of  Eurostat’s  analysis  of  the  application  of  the 
derogations. 

2.   DATA AVAILABILITY 

2.1  Introduction and legal basis 

Policymaking in the European Union and monitoring  of the Member States’ economies and 
the  economic  and  monetary  union  (EMU)  require  comparable,  up-to-date  and  reliable 
information on the structure of the economy and the development of the economic situation 
of each Member State or region. In addition, citizens need economic accounts as a basic tool 
for analysing the economic situation of a Member State or region. To satisfy these user needs, 
Article 3(1) of the ESA 2010 Regulation provides that: 

‘The Member States shall transmit to the Commission (Eurostat) the accounts and tables 
set out in Annex B within the time limits specified therein for each table.’ 

Furthermore, under Article 5(1): 

‘The ESA 2010 shall be applied for the first time to data established in accordance with 
Annex B to be transmitted from 1 September 2014.’ 

An  overview  of  the  data  concerned  is  presented  on  the  first  page  of  the  ESA 2010 
transmission programme:

The  transmission  programme  includes  tables  for  all  national  accounts  domains:  main 
aggregates, government finance statistics, non-financial and financial sector accounts, supply 
and use tables, and regional accounts. Most tables have to be reported on an annual basis, but 
the  programme  also  includes  several  tables  with  a  quarterly  frequency.  In  most  cases,  data 
transmission is compulsory, but the programme also includes some variables for which it is 
voluntary. 

For  each  table  in  the  overview  above,  the  programme  provides  a  detailed  and  exhaustive 
description of the transmission requirements.

2.2  Reasons for changing data availability over time 

The transmission of data according to the ESA 2010 guidelines and transmission programme 
started  in  September  2014.  Although  the  transmission  requirements  have  not  changed  since 
then,  the  volume  of  data  transmitted  to  Eurostat  has,  due  to  changing data  availability.  The 
reasons for this are as follows: 

1.  expiry of derogations 

Depending on the variables concerned and the situation of the country in  question, 
expiry  of  the  derogations  was  set  between  2015  and  2020.  As  a  result,  data 
availability increases over time; 

2.  degree of completeness 

Data completeness can change over time; a Member State that does not transmit all 
required  data  one  year  may  develop  those  data  and  be  able  to  transmit  a  complete 
data set in a subsequent year (or vice versa). Thus data availability will change over 
time; 

3. 

initially voluntary tables and variables become compulsory 

Examples  include  table  29  (‘accrued-to-date  pension  entitlements  in  social 
insurance’), for which data transmission was voluntary for reference year 2012 and 
became  mandatory  for  reference  year  2015  (to  be  transmitted  in  2017),  and  the 
variable  ‘land’  in  table  26  (‘balance  sheets  for  non-financial  assets’),  for  which 
transmission became (partly) compulsory in 2017; and 

4.  extension of period covered 

The  transmission  programme  requires  data  transmission  from  a  certain  reference 
year  or  quarter  onwards.  The  first  reference  year  or  quarter  differs  from  table  to 
table, but is often 1995 (1995Q1). Because a new year or quarter is added to the time 
series at each transmission deadline, the time series become longer over time. 

The  third  and  fourth  reasons  above  cannot  be  influenced  and  do  not  require  action  from 
Member States or Eurostat. However, action is required as regards the expiry of derogations 
and  improving  data  completeness  (first  and  second  reasons).  Data  availability  and 
completeness  of  data  deliveries  is  the  subject  of  the  next  section;  the  development  of 
derogations is addressed in chapters 3 and 4. 

2.3  Data availability and completeness of data deliveries 

Already  under  ESA 1995,  Eurostat  carried  out  regular  assessments  of  Member  States’  data 
availability. The data availability analysis covers the assessment of data completeness and, to 
a limited extent, timeliness. Annual assessments were maintained under ESA 2010, with the 
first carried out in October 2015 (with a limited update in February 2016), the second in April 
2016, the third in February 2017 and the fourth in January 2018. 

6 

 
Figure 2.1 (data availability developments between October 2015 and January 2018) is based 
on assessments in October 2015, May 2016, February 2017 and January 2018. It shows, by 
country,  for  the  four  assessment  points,  how  many  of  the  22  tables  under  the  ESA 2010 
transmission programme were delivered complete, almost complete, with some shortcomings 
and with significant shortcomings: 

√: 

(√): 

P: 

Complete data delivery. This means that the country provides all the data. Only very minor, infrequent 
shortcomings may be present.  
Almost complete data delivery. Few or minor shortcomings may exist, but the important indicators are 
provided.  
Data  are  delivered  with  shortcomings  concerning  important  indicators  or  an  accumulation  of  less 
important indicators.  

N:  Data are delivered with significant shortcomings or not delivered at all. 

When interpreting the graphs, it should be remembered that: 

 

 

 

 

due  to  slight  differences  in  assessment  method,  results  for  October  2015  and  May 
2016 on the one hand, and for February 2017 and January 2018 on the other are not 
fully  comparable.  Still,  the  graphs  provide  a  reliable  picture  of  data  availability 
developments; 

assessments for Iceland are only available for February 2017 and January 2018. No 
assessments are available for Switzerland; 

derogations are taken into account, i.e. if data gaps are covered by derogations, the 
data are not considered as missing; 

data  transmission  for  an  additional  table  (table  29  'accrued-to-date  pension 
entitlements  in  social  insurance')  only  became  compulsory  by  end-2017.  Therefore 
this table is not considered in the assessments.

Figure 2.1 shows that, between October 2015 and January 2018, the number of tables with a 
relatively high degree of completeness increased for a large majority of  countries. While 13 
countries delivered one or more tables with serious shortcomings in October 2015, only 7 did 
so  in  January  2018.  Only  6  countries  transmitted  complete  or  almost  complete  tables  in 
October 2015, but 19 were able to do so in January 2018. 

Between October 2015 and January 2018, the most progress in data availability was seen in 
Luxembourg,  Cyprus  and  Poland.  As  regards  performance  levels  in  the  most  recent  year 
available  (January  2018),  Italy,  Slovenia  and  the  Netherlands  managed  to  provide  all  22 
tables fully complete. There is significant room for improvement in Iceland, Croatia, Norway 
and Bulgaria. 

Annex A shows the results of the data availability assessments  in more detail (by country and 
table). 

Figure 2.2 gives an overall picture of data availability developments, with the percentages of 
tables  in  each  of  the  four  completeness  categories  (calculated  as  averages  of  all  Member 
States and Norway).

Figure 2.2 shows a clear improvement in data availability between October 2015 and January 
2018: there is an obvious trend of data gaps being closed and full sets of data being delivered. 
While  in  October  2015  64 %  of  the  tables  transmitted  by  countries  were  sent  without 
shortcomings  and  4 %  were  sent  with  serious  problems,  the  corresponding  percentages  in 
January 2018 were 81 % and 1 %. 

3.   DEVELOPMENT OF DEROGATIONS 

3.1  Introduction and legal basis 

The  Member  States  have  been  required  to  apply  ESA 2010  in  their  national  accounts  data 
transmissions  to  Eurostat  since  1  September  2014.  However,  Article  6  of  the  ESA 2010 

9 

 
 
 
Regulation  allowed  them  to  apply  for  temporary  derogations  from  the  transmission 
requirements: 

‘In so far as a national statistical system necessitates major adaptations for the application 
of this Regulation, the Commission shall grant temporary derogations to Member States 
by  means  of  implementing  acts.  Those  derogations  shall  expire  not  later  than 
1 January 2020.  Those  implementing  acts  shall  be  adopted  in  accordance  with  the 
examination procedure referred to in Article 8(2).’ 

All  Member  States  except  the  Czech  Republic  applied  for  derogations.  The  derogations 
granted  were  laid  down  in  the  2014  Commission  implementing  decision  on  derogations 
(Decision  2014/403/EU,  26  June  2014).  The  EFTA  Surveillance  Authority  granted 
derogations 
Iceland 
(Decision 471/14/COL, 30 October 2015). For Switzerland, negotiations on derogations only 
started in 2017 and are still ongoing.

The following sections provide an overview of the criteria for assessing derogation requests 
(section 3.2) and developments in the period between end-2015 – end-2017 (section 3.3). 

3.2  Granting of derogations and assessment criteria 

Derogations  were  requested  and  granted  between  March  2011  and  June 2014.  Table 3.1

In  stages  1  and  3,  the  Member  States  were  asked  to  specify  their  (provisional)  derogation 
requests in terms of: 

 

 

 

 

 

table number(s); 

name of variable(s) and code of the indicator(s) concerned; 

detailed description of the derogation (e.g. total economy or sector/industry/regional 
breakdown,  valuation,  unadjusted  or  seasonally  adjusted,  consolidated  or 
non-consolidated, etc.); 

reference periods for which the derogation was requested; and 

year of expiry of the derogation and first regular transmission. 

10 

 
After all details had been clarified (stage 4a), Eurostat assessed the requests (stage 4b) on the 
basis of a set of predefined criteria: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

need  to  adapt  national  statistical  systems  (assessment  based  on  countries’  stated 
reasons for their requests); 

impact on European aggregates and policies; 

reference periods for which derogations were requested (easier to grant derogations 
for less recent periods); 

length of requested period covered (derogations easier to grant for short periods); 

existing or new variables (derogations easier to grant for the latter); 

data for operational versus scientific national accounts purposes (derogations easier 
to grant for the latter); and 

 

common problems. 

Eurostat  and  the Member  States  then  discussed  the  resulting  lists  of  derogations  bilaterally, 
adapted them where necessary and agreed on their final form (stage 4c). The lists of granted 
derogations were finalised (stage 6) and the legal procedure (stage 7) was started, resulting in 
Decision 2014/403/EU. Table 3.2 shows the number of derogations by country and ESA 2010 
table as of the start of implementation of the ESA 2010 transmission programme. 

At the start of the transmission programme, the Commission adopted implementing Decision 
2014/403 granting 888 derogations to 27 Member States (only the Czech Republic requested 
none). In addition, the EFTA Surveillance Authority granted 145 derogations to Norway and 
Iceland. The number of derogations varies widely across countries. A relatively large number 
of derogations were granted to Iceland (140), Croatia (109) and Poland (82). The Netherlands 
requested  only  one,  Norway  five,  Greece  and  Finland  seven,  and  Italy  eight.  However,  it 
should be noted that the scope of derogations may vary substantially, from a single figure to a 
whole table.

3.3  Development of derogations 

As  derogations  reduce  data  availability  and  thus  affect  user  interests,  Eurostat  assessed  the 
Member States’ requests very carefully (stage 4b). For the same reasons, in 2015 it started a 
process aimed at ensuring that data are actually transmitted after expiry of the derogations in 
the  year  agreed  with  the  Member  States  and  laid  down  in  the  legal  text  (‘year  of  first 
transmission’). 

Derogations  and  their  expiry  are  monitored  with  the  help  of  the  ‘derogation  dashboard’, 
which provides an annual overview of the state of play for all derogations; it was produced 
for  the  first  time  byend-2015  and  subsequently  by  end-2016  and  end-2017.  Under  the 
monitoring procedure, all Member States receive a file listing their derogations and are asked 
to report the state of play for each derogation, as follows: 

Closed 
On track 

With difficulties 

Not yet addressed 

The work on the derogation has been finalised and data have been transmitted. 
The work on the derogation is progressing and is considered to be ‘on schedule’. 
The  work on the  derogation  is ongoing,  but there is a risk that it  will not be finalised in 
time. 
The work on the derogation has not started yet. 

Eurostat  collects  the  results  and  presents  them  for  discussion  with  Member  States  in  the 
December  meetings  of  the  Directors  of  Macro-Economic  Statistics  (DMES).  The  EFTA 
countries  are not included in this annual exercise. 

Figure  3.1  shows,  by  country  and  category,  developments  in  the  state  of  play  for  the 
derogations as reported by the Member States by the end of the respective years. 

13 

 
Figure 3.1:  Member States’ derogations – state of play (end-2015 – end-2017) 

14 

 
 
 
 
 
Between end-2015 and end-2017, the number of ‘on track’ or ‘closed’ derogations increased 
or remained stable in all Member States. The most progress was made by Croatia (increase of 
27), Bulgaria and Sweden (both 16). 

As mentioned, figure 3.1 represents the state of affairs as reported by the Member States by 
the end of each year. As some derogations may expire in December, Eurostat assesses only in 
the first few months of the subsequent year whether all obligations regarding the closure of 
derogations have been met. The follow-up of such cases is discussed in chapter 5. 

Figure  3.2  provides  an  overall  picture  of  developments  on  the  888  derogations,  shown  for 
end-2015, end-2016 and end-2017, and for all Member States the percentages of derogations 
that are ‘closed’, ‘on track’, ‘with difficulties’ and ‘not yet addressed’. 

Figure 3.2:   Derogations – state of play (end-2015 – end-2017), total EU 

Figure 3.2 confirms the conclusions from figure 3.1: there has been a clear shift from ‘not yet 
addressed’  derogations  (down  from  31 %  to  13 %)  to  ‘closed’  derogations  (up  from  25 % 
to 54 %). 

A more detailed analysis of the end-2017 dashboard results is attached as Annex B, updated 
in January 2018 to include the derogations that expired in 2017. 

4.   VERIFICATION OF DEROGATIONS 

4.1  Introduction and legal basis 

In  line  with  Article  6(1)  of  the  ESA 2010  Regulation,  Member  States  received  temporary 
derogations allowing them time to make the necessary major adaptations to be able to apply 
the  Regulation.  The  derogations  were  granted  on  the  basis  of  justified  requests  and 
established  under  Decision  2014/403/EU.  They  will  all  expire  by  1  January  2020  (but  the 
majority much earlier). 

15 

 
 
 
 
While the monitoring of derogations on the basis of the dashboard is voluntary, Article 6(3) 
of  the  Regulation  provides  for  mandatory  review  of  the  validity  of  Member  States’ 
justifications: 

‘(…)  The  Commission,  after  consulting  the  European  Statistical  System  Committee, 
shall report to the European Parliament and the Council not later than 1 July 2018 on the 
application of the granted derogations in order to verify whether they are still justified.’ 

This  chapter  starts  to  explain  the  organisation  and  the  content  of  the  verification  process 
(section 4.2) and goes on to present the main outcomes and conclusions (section 4.3). 

4.2  Verification process 

As specified in the second paragraph of Article 6(3) of the ESA 2010 Regulation, this report 
assesses whether the justifications for the derogations that Member States provided in 2013 
are  still  valid.  This  involves  assessing  the  interplay  between  the  major  adaptations  of  the 
national  statistical  systems,  the  justifications  for  the  derogations  and  the  derogations 
themselves. To this end, Eurostat collected updates on the justifications in a similar way as 
was done in 2013. The verification is relevant only for the 365 derogations expiring in 2018, 
2019  and  2020.  It  does  not  cover  those  that  expired  in  2015-2017,  even  if  bilateral 
discussions  are  ongoing  with  the  countries  in  question.  Neither  does  it  concern  the  Czech 
Republic  (which  did  not  request  derogations)  or  Greece,  Italy  and  the  Netherlands  (whose 
derogations  expired  in  2017  or  before).  The  EFTA  countries  Norway,  Iceland  and 
Switzerland have not been included in the verification process. 

For  the  purpose  of  the verification,  Eurostat launched  a  questionnaire on  5  July  2017,  with 
15 September 2017 as the deadline for reply. It prefilled information on the derogations and 
the  justifications  submitted  in  2013.  Member  States  were  asked  to  indicate  whether  the 
circumstances  giving  rise  to  the  derogation  had  changed  since  17 October 2013.  If  so,  they 
were asked to indicate how the attributes of the derogations (codes and variables, description, 
period  covered  and  year  of  first  transmission)  could  be  updated  to  reflect  the  changed 
circumstances. Member States were not allowed to request new derogations, as the right to do 
so expired on 17 October 2013. 

Annex C shows an empty questionnaire template, with a detailed overview of the questions. 

4.3  Verification results 

Eurostat  processed,  analysed  and  assessed  the  completed  questionnaires  (see  table  4.1).  In 
theory, verification could lead to the following assessments of Member States’ justifications 
for derogations granted under Decision 2014/403/EU: 

 

 

case 1: the justification is valid; 

case 2: the justification is partially valid; or 

16 

 
 
 

case 3: the justification is no longer valid. 

In  case  1,  no  legislative  action  would  be  taken;  the  existing  derogations  would  apply  as 
specified  in  Decision  2014/403/EU.  Cases  2  and  3  would  give  rise  to  amendments  of  the 
Decision: case 2 would require a change and case 3 the removal of the derogation in question.

* Including three derogations for which justification is valid, but which can still be closed. 

Table  4.1  shows  that  most  Member  States  already  solved  many  of  the  problems  which 
originally  triggered  the  application  for  derogations  even  ahead  of  the  year  when  they  were 
due  to  expire.  In  absolute  terms,  Latvia  and  Lithuania  managed  to  abrogate  the  most 
derogations before the legal year of expiry: 15 and 11 respectively. In terms of the percentage 
of  outstanding  derogations,  Lithuania  (100 %)  and  the  United  Kingdom  (89 %)  performed 
best.  Croatia  (45),  Poland  (35)  and  Malta (31) have  relatively  high  numbers  of  derogations 
still open/valid, mainly because they were granted a lot in 2013. 

Figure 4.1 shows the distribution between valid, partially valid and no longer valid cases for 
all 365 derogations that expire in 2018, 2019 or 2020.

244; 67% 

Figure  4.1  shows  that  67 %  (244)  of  the  365  derogations  are  still  valid  (case  1)  and  can 
remain unchanged. It was found that the justification was no longer valid for 27 % (98) of the 
derogations. These would all be withdrawn, as the countries in question have closed them and 
transmitted  data  ahead  of  time  (in  2017  or  before,  while  the  year  of  first  transmission  was 
2018,  2019  or  2020).  For  a  limited  number  of  derogations  (23,  or  6 %),  the  justification  is 
partially  valid.  This  concerns  derogations  for  which  the  scope  can  be  narrowed,  e.g. by 
deleting  variables,  shortening  the  period  covered,  advancing  the  year  of  first  transmission, 
etc. 

In line with the results of this review it is appropriate that Decision 2014/403/EU is amended. 
As  a  result,  98  derogations  would  be  withdrawn  and  the  scope  of  23  would  be  narrowed 
down.  The  established  procedure  for  the  Commission  implementing  acts,  based  on  the 
examination procedure involving the European Statistical System Committee, would apply to 
this  exercise.  Information  on  the  appropriate  amendments  to  the  annex  to  Decision 
2014/403/EU can be found in Annex D. 

5.   ACTION TO IMPROVE DATA AVAILABILITY 

5.1  Introduction 

As  partners  in  the  European  Statistical  System,  national  data  compilers  and  Eurostat  are 
continuously working to improve data availability for its users. Since the start of preparations 
to implement ESA 2010, significant efforts have been made to provide harmonised technical 
recommendations and address data compilation challenges in the expert working groups. The 
Commission provides financial support for actions to close the derogations. Data availability 
is  monitored  regularly  during  periods  of  data  production.  A  more  structural  review  of  the 

18 

 
 
 
 
state  of  play  on  derogations  is  conducted  annually:  Member  States’  work  is  monitored  by 
means of the derogation dashboard and checks are carried out as to whether data are actually 
transmitted when the derogations expire. In addition, there is regular monitoring, by Member 
State  and  table,  if  data  availability  is  in  accordance  with  the  ESA 2010  transmission 
requirements. 

5.2  Technical cooperation and harmonisation 

Member  States  have  made  and  still  make  significant  efforts  to  improve  data  availability  in 
accordance  with  the  ESA  2010  requirements.  The  Commission  (Eurostat)  supports  these 
efforts through meetings, workshops, courses, guidance manuals and documents. 

Technical  cooperation  is  conducted  through  the  Working  Groups  on  National  Accounts 
(NAWG)  and  Excessive  Deficit  Procedure  (EDPS  WG)  under  the  guidance  of  DMES 
meetings. A large number of working groups and task forces have examined a wide range of 
topics  relating  to  the  introduction  and  interpretation  of  ESA 2010  and  the  transmission 
programme; these include the task force on land and other non-financial assets, the task force 
on  goods  sent  abroad  for  processing,  the  task  force  on  research  and  development,  and  the 
workshop on pensions. 

Numerous courses and training sessions on ESA 2010 and the transmission programme have 
been  organised.  Eurostat  and  external  contractors  organise  general  trainings  on  national 
accounts three times a year for staff with different levels of experience. The courses cover the 
principles  of  national  accounts  and  highlight  changes  in  ESA 2010  vis-à-vis  ESA 1995.  In 
addition,  several  more  targeted  courses  have  been  organised,  e.g. on  insurance,  ESA 2010 
and pensions, and goods sent abroad for processing. 

Many manuals, working papers and other documents have been prepared to provide Member 
State statisticians with guidance on a broad range of ESA 2010-related issues. In addition to 
the ESA 2010 methodological manual itself, these include: 

  Technical Compilation Guide for Pension Data in National Accounts; 

  Handbook on quarterly national accounts; 

  Manual on regional accounts methods; 

  Manual on the changes between ESA 95 and ESA 2010; 

  Manual on measuring Research and Development in ESA 2010;  

  Manual on Government Deficit and Debt; 

  Manual on goods sent abroad for processing; 

  Eurostat-OECD compilation guide on land estimation; 

19 

 
 
  Note on foreign trade reported by non-residents; 

  Handbook on prices and volumes measures in national accounts; and 

  Eurostat-OECD compilation guide on inventories. 

5.3  Commission financial support for Member States 

Eurostat encourages Member States to improve national accounts data availability and to lift 
their  derogations.  In  accordance  with  Article  128  of  Regulation  (EU,  Euratom) 
No 966/20123,  each  year  the  Commission  (Eurostat)  invites  Member  States  to  apply  for 
grants4 to support this work. Countries’ action is financed under the ‘shared cost’ principle: at 
least  10 %  of  the  costs  must  be  funded  by  the  beneficiary’s  own  sources  or  third  parties, 
while the Union financial contribution will be up to 90 % of eligible costs. The beneficiaries 
have to provide Eurostat with a report describing their development work and the results. As 
far as possible, results from the grant reports are made publicly available. 

Many Member States have taken advantage of the grants to work on national accounts data 
availability  and  derogations.  In  2010-2012,  a  substantial  number  of  grant  applications 
concerned  issues  relating  to  the  implementation  of  ESA 2010  and  the  transmission 
programme.

The  2013,  2015,  2016  and  2017  grant  exercises  were  opportunities  for  countries  to  secure 
financial support on a broad range of national accounts issues directly or indirectly related to 
the  improvement  of  ESA  2010  data.  Two  important  areas  were  compiling  data  covered  by 
derogations and producing estimates for voluntary items in the transmission programme.

5.4  Measures to improve data availability  

Usually, the assessment of data availability, dashboard monitoring and regular contacts with 
countries  ensure  that  important  data  availability  issues  are  avoided  or  quickly  resolved. 
However,  in  some  cases  it  might  be  necessary  to  take  additional  action.  Where  Member 
States' failure to provide data in accordance with the ESA 2010 obligations seriously harms 
data availability, Eurostat sends the countries in question an official letter reminding them of 
the  transmission  requirements  and  asking  them  to  take  appropriate  measures  to  ensure  that 
the  required  data  are  transmitted.  Table  5.3  shows  the  numbers  of  such  letters  sent  in 
2015-2017.

In 2015-2017, Eurostat sent 44 letters on ESA 2010 data issues to 19 Member States. While 
these  covered  a  wide  range  of  issues  across  the  transmission  programme,  a  considerable 
number concerned the main aggregates and the non-financial sector accounts tables. Several 
letters in 2016 and 2017 addressed expired derogations, as part of the follow-up to the regular 
derogation monitoring (see section 3.3). 

In  most  cases,  countries  took  action  in  response  to  the  letters,  sometimes  after  receiving  a 
reminder.  In  one  case,  the  Commission  had  to  start  an  informal  dialogue  with  the  country 
concerned  through  the  EU  pilot  regarding  persistently  missing  annual  data  and  incomplete 
quarterly data for non-financial sector accounts. 

6.   CONCLUSIONS 

The  ESA 2010  Regulation  requires  the  Member  States  to  provide  the  data  specified  in  its 
Annex B. Article 6 allowed countries to apply for temporary derogations to the transmission 
requirements and Article 6(3) requires the Commission to report to the European Parliament 
and  the  Council  on  the  application  of  the  derogations  by  1 July 2018.  In  the  light  of  these 
provisions, this report addresses developments in data availability in the Member States and 
presents  the  results  of  Eurostat’s  analysis  of  the  derogations  granted.  It  covers  four  main 
topics:  

1.  Data availability according to the ESA 2010 transmission requirements 

The Commission (Eurostat) assesses on a regular basis whether Member States’ data 
availability  is  in  accordance  with  the  transmission  requirements.  The  data 
availability  analysis  covers  the  assessment  of  data  completeness  and,  to  a  limited 
extent,  timeliness.  The  assessments  took  place  in  October  2015,  April  2016, 
February  2017 and  January  2018. It can  be concluded that data availability clearly 
improved between October 2015 and January 2018. The shift from categories of data 
deliveries with (serious) shortcomings to full and almost full data delivery categories 
shows  the  clear  trend  of  data  gaps  being  closed.  In  2015,  64 %  of  the  tables 
transmitted  by  countries  were  sent  without  shortcomings  and  4  %  were  sent  with 
serious  problems.  The  corresponding  percentages  in  2018  were  81 %  and  1 % 
respectively; 

22 

 
 
 
 
2.  Derogations and developments over time 

After  careful  assessment  against  predefined  criteria,  the  Commission  adopted 
implementing Decision 2014/403 granting 888 temporary derogations to 27 Member 
States.  In  addition,  the  EFTA  Surveillance  Authority  granted  145  derogations  to 
Norway and Iceland. 

As  derogations  reduce  data  availability  and  thus  affect  user  interests,  Eurostat 
regularly  monitors  the  state  of  play  on  the  granted  derogations  and  checks  that 
Member  States  respect  the  derogations'  expiry  date.  Between  end-2015  and  end-
2017, the number of ‘on track’ or ‘closed’ derogations increased or remained stable 
in all Member States. Overall, there has been a clear shift from ‘not yet addressed’ 
derogations  (down  from  31 %  to  13 %)  to  ‘closed’  derogations  (up  from  25 %  to 
54 %); 

3.  Verification of derogations 

As  specified  in  the  second  paragraph  of  Article  6(3)  of  the  Regulation,  this  report 
assesses whether the justifications for the derogations that Member States provided 
in 2013 are still valid. The results of a questionnaire shows that most Member States 
already solved many of the problems which originally triggered the application for 
derogations  even  ahead  of  the  year  when  they  were  due  to  expire.  Of  the  365 
derogations  expiring  in  2018,  2019  or  2020,  67 %  (244)  are  still  valid  and  can 
remain  unchanged  For  27 %  of  the  derogations  (98  derogations  —  all  concerning 
derogations that can be closed since data have already been delivered ahead of time) 
the justification is no longer valid. 

For  a  relatively  limited  number  of  derogations  (23,  or  6 %)  the  justification  is 
partially valid. This concerns derogations for which the scope can be narrowed, e.g. 
by deleting variables from the derogation, shortening the period covered, advancing 
the first year of transmission, etc.  

In line with the results of its review it is appropriate that Decision 2014/403/EU is 
amended:  98  derogations  would  be  withdrawn  and  the  scope  of  23  would  be 
narrowed down. The established procedure for the Commission implementing acts, 
based  on  the  examination  procedure  involving  the  European  Statistical  System 
Committee, would apply to this exercise. 

4.  Action undertaken to improve data availability 

Eurostat,  in  cooperation  with  national  data  compilers,  is  continuously  working  to 
improve data availability for its users. Data availability is monitored regularly during 
periods of data production, but also by means of structural (annual) data availability 
monitoring and a regular annual review of the state of play of derogations. 

Member  States  have  made  and  still  make  significant  efforts  to  improve  data 
availability  in  accordance  with  the  ESA  2010  requirements.  The  Commission 

23 

 
 
(Eurostat)  supports  these  efforts  through  meetings,  workshops,  courses,  guidance 
manuals and documents, it has encouraged Member States to  make  similar efforts. 
Technical  cooperation  is  conducted  through  the  Working  Groups  on  National 
Accounts and Excessive Deficit Procedure under the guidance of the meeting of the 
Directors of Macroeconomic Statistics of the National Statistical Institutes. 

Financial  support  from  the  Commission  to  Member  States  is  an  important  tool  to 
encourage countries to improve data availability and to lift derogations, even before 
their  expiry  date.  In  2010-2012,  a  substantial  number  of  grant  applications 
concerned  topics  relating  to  the  implementation  of  ESA 2010  and  the  transmission 
programme; 22 Member States and Norway applied for such grants. In 2013-2017, 
grant  projects  concerned  the  improvement  of  ESA 2010  data,  including  the 
development of voluntary data and data covered by derogations; 23 Member States 
and two EFTA countries applied for such grants. 

In  the  limited  number  of  cases  where  Member  States’  failure  to  provide  data  in 
accordance with the ESA 2010 obligations seriously harm data availability, Eurostat 
sends the countries in question an official letter reminding them of the transmission 
requirements  and  asking  them  to  take  appropriate  measures  to  address  the issue  as 
soon as possible. In 2015-2017, Eurostat sent 44 letters on data issues to 19 Member 
States. A considerable number concerned main aggregates and non-financial sector 
accounts. In most cases, the countries took action in response to the letters. In one 
case, the Commission had to start an informal dialogue with the country concerned 
through  the  EU  pilot  regarding  persistently  missing  annual  data  and  incomplete 
quarterly data for non-financial sector accounts. 

In  conclusion,  data  availability  improved  significantly  between  October  2015  and  January 
2018.  Most  of  the  derogations  that  expired  at  the  latest  in  2017  have  been  resolved  by  the 
respective Member States. In addition, a significant number of Member States are providing 
(part of) the data covered by derogations even before the first transmission date laid down in 
Commission  Implementing  Decision  2014/403/EU.  It  is  appropriate  for  the  Commission  to 
amend that Decision to take account of changes in the justifications of existing derogations. 

To serve users’ interests, Eurostat will, in cooperation with Member States, take all necessary 
actions  to  ensure  full  implementation  of  the  ESA 2010  Regulation.  It  will  remain  in  close 
contact  with  Member  States  to  improve  data  availability  further  in  the  coming  years  and 
continue its work on monitoring derogations.

ANNEX B:   DEROGATION DASHBOARD RESULTS 

As part of its ESA 2010 data availability monitoring, Eurostat produces an annual derogation 
dashboard  on  the  basis  of  Decision  2014/403/EU.  The  purpose  of  the  dashboard  is  to  track 
Member  States’  progress  in  providing  data  in  accordance  with  the  ESA 2010  transmission 
programme.  The  dashboard  is  updated  once  a  year  in  November  by  each  country  and 
presented to the DMES meeting in December. 

The  members  of  the  DMES  were  sent  a  file  listing  derogations  per  country  and  asked  to 
record progress made in 2017 by indicating whether derogations were ‘not yet addressed’, ‘on 
track’,  ‘with  difficulties’  or  ‘closed’.  The  deadline  for  returning  the  completed  tables  was 
10 November 2017. 

In  January  2018,  Eurostat  re-examined  the  derogations  that  expired  in  2017  in  order  to 
determine  if  the  derogations  should  be  considered  as  closed.  The  results  presented  in  this 
annex include the January 2018 update. 

Failure to transmit data after a derogation has expired is considered as a case of 'missing data' 
in the next data availability assessment. If a derogation is closed before expiry, but data are 
transmitted  with  shortcomings,  this  will  also  be  considered  as  'missing'  in  the  next  data 
availability monitoring round. 

Improvements, January 2018 

More than half of all derogations are now closed (59 %, as compared with 36 % a year ago). 
Another 23 % are ‘on track’, indicating that data will be delivered when they expire. 

Member States have classified around 18 % of the open derogations as ‘with difficulties’ or 
‘not yet addressed’. A list of the former is provided in Annex B.1. Eurostat would encourage 
Member States to inform it of any problems with implementation and any need for assistance.

Of the remaining 360 open derogations, the majority (258, or 71 %) will expire in 2020. 91 
derogations (25 %) expired in 2017 and the concerned data are now considered as not having 
been delivered (see Annex B.2). 

For 24 open derogations that should have been closed in 2017, Member States have reported 
that work is moving ahead ‘with difficulties’ or is ‘not yet addressed’.

Expired derogations 

Many  derogations  have  been  closed  in  advance  of  expiry.  However,  some  that  expired  in 
2015-2017  are  still  open  (see  Annex  B.2),  which  implies  that  ESA  2010  transmission 
requirements  have  not  been  met.  For  those  concerning  tables  with  12  or  24  months  of 
transmission delay, data transmissions were expected by the end of 2017. 

The  Commission  is  contacting  all  Member  States  that  still  have  to  transmit  data  for  which 
their  derogations  expired  in  2017  and  request  them  to  provide  the  concerned  data  in 
accordance with the ESA 2010 transmission requirements.
