Regional statistics - defined by the Commission as the cornerstone of the statistical system - are used at Community level as an objective statistical base for a number of very diverse purposes.

Despite the EP's position in favour of including a fourth NUTS category (report A5-0071/2003 ; rapporteur: Rosa Miguélez Ramos) in order to cover smaller territorial units, Regulation (EC) 1059/2003 provides for only three NUTS categories, based on demographic criteria:

Eurostat introduced the classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) over 25 years ago, with the aim of providing a single, uniform means of subdividing territorial units when drawing up regional statistics for the Union.

The regulation's objectives include, in particular, that of managing the inevitable process of change in Member States' administrative structures in as smooth a fashion as possible, in order to minimise the impact of changes on the availability and comparability of regional statistics.

The NUTS classification has been created and developed on the basis of the following principles:
a) NUTS gives priority to institutional subdivisions: for practical reasons related to the availability of data and the implementation of regional policies, the NUTS classification is based in its origins on the existing institutional divisions in the Member States (normative criteria).

If comparable units are to be grouped together at each level, NUTS has to create, for each Member States, an extra regional level additional to the two mentioned.

This additional level corresponds to a less important administrative structure, or may not correspond to any such structure at all, and the level of its classification varies within the first three NUTS levels; this depends entirely on the Member State.

Comments on the proposal for a regulation
The Commission's proposal for a regulation is submitted in amendment of Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia.
The Commission's proposal for a regulation is submitted in amendment of Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia.
Like its predecessor, this regulation will be adopted by codecision (Article 251 of the EC Treaty), with Article 285 of the EC Treaty as its legal basis
Like its predecessor, this regulation will be adopted by codecision (Article 251 of the EC Treaty), with Article 285 of the EC Treaty as its legal basis
'... the Council, acting in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 251, shall adopt measures for the production of statistics where necessary for the performance of the activities of the Community'. .
'... the Council, acting in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 251, shall adopt measures for the production of statistics where necessary for the performance of the activities of the Community'. .
The proposal for a regulation consists of a NUTS classification for the new Member States (adapting the existing Annex I to the situation created by the enlargement of the EU to take in the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia), together with a set of definitions of the existing administrative units (Annex II) and a provision concerning smaller administrative units (Annex III).

By providing for the level of 'smaller administrative units', the Commission is responding to Parliament's call to remedy the lack of uniformity which has characterised the NUTS classification - with one and the same level applying to, for instance, all of Sweden (8 850 000 inhabitants and 410 000 km 2 ) and the Brussels region (954 000 inhabitants and 161 km 2 ).

Given this, and as the NUTS classification should be used wherever possible for all statistics from the Member States forwarded to the Commission that are broken down by territorial unit, it is necessary, for Regulation (EC ) No 1059/2003, to adapt Annexes I and II and to add the new Annex III, so as to take account of enlargement.

Your rapporteur welcomes the Commission's initiative regarding adaptation of the annexes to Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) by reason of the accession of the Czech Republic, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia.

Your rapporteur does not consider it necessary to table amendments to the text of the proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council amending Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003.

Nonetheless, greater emphasis could be placed on certain elements, i.e.: the application of codecision to the procedure; and the treatment of the smaller administrative units, on the subject of which additional recitals could be required.

Concerning the legal basis of the proposal for a regulation which is the subject of this report, your rapporteur believes it is necessary to adopt it on the basis of Article 285 of the EC Treaty, rather than by applying the acts of accession relating to the Member States which joined the EU on 1 May 2004.

Article 285 of the EC Treaty, which lays down the legal framework for drawing up Community statistics, is the existing legal basis for Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003; for this reason, it does not appear desirable to change it with the proposal amending the regulation.

Your rapporteur further believes it is necessary to create a NUTS level for 'smaller administrative units', as this would make it possible to reflect real circumstances more accurately and avoid anomalies such as the presence of regional units with very different populations within the same NUTS level.

He would therefore encourage the Commission to submit a communication on the subject in the course of 2005.

A. tā kā Līguma 3. panta 1.c)punktā nosaka, ka Kopienas darbībām ir jāietver iekšējā tirgus izveidošana, ko raksturo šķēršļu atcelšana brīvai preču, personu, pakalpojumu un kapitāla apritei starp dalībvalstīm;
A. whereas Article 3(1)(c) of the Treaty states that the activities of the Community shall include the creation of an Internal Market characterised by the abolition between Member States of obstacles to the free movement of goods, persons, services and capital,
B. tā kā Līguma 3. panta 1.h) punktā nosaka, ka Kopienas darbībām ir jāietver dalībvalstu likumu tuvināšana, ciktāl tā nepieciešama kopējā tirgus darbībai;
B. whereas Article 3(1)(h) of the Treaty states that the activities of the Community shall include the approximation of the laws of Member States to the extent required for the functioning of the common market,
C. tā kā Līguma 10. pantā aicina dalībvalstis veikt visus attiecīgos pasākumus, lai nodrošinātu to pienākumu izpildi, kas izriet no Līguma, un ko rada Kopienas iestāžu darbība un paredz ka tās atturas no visiem pasākumiem, kas var traucēt sasniegt Līguma mērķus;
C. whereas Article 10 of the Treaty calls on the Member States to take all the appropriate measures to ensure the fulfilment of their obligations arising out of the Treaty or resulting from action taken by the institutions of the Community and provides that they shall abstain from any measure which could jeopardise the attainment of the objectives of the Treaty,
D. tā kā Līguma 14. panta 2. punktā nosaka, ka iekšējais tirgus aptver telpu bez iekšējām robežām, kurā saskaņā ar Līgumu ir nodrošināta preču, personu, pakalpojumu un kapitāla brīva aprite;

E. tā kā Līguma 18. panta 1.punktā nosaka, ka pastāvot noteiktiem nosacījumiem, katram Eiropas Savienības pilsonim ir tiesības brīvi pārvietoties un pastāvīgi uzturēties dalībvalstu teritorijā;

I. whereas the Internal Market can only be genuinely complete if all Member States transpose and enforce the Internal Market Directives,
J. tā kā šo direktīvu nepārņemšana, neīstenošana un nepiemērošana rada iekšējā tirgus sašķeltību, kavē Eiropas ekonomikas turpmāku ekonomisku izaugsmi un pastiprina reģionālās atšķirības;
