  2. GDP 1995-2002 revision • Exhaustiveness adjustments by output GDP – Eurostat’s Tabular Approach • By type • By institutional sectors • By activities

  3. GDP 1995-2002 revision (1) • Methodology ESA 1995; • Complete data sources by institutional sectors at unit level; • VAT, Labour Costs Survey 2000/2004, Economic Accounts for Agriculture; • New accounting system for public sector – general government and market producers at unit level; • Agreement with the Ministry of Finance and the Tax Office at the end of 2002: unit level data for VAT reports, S.14 production units and households income tax annual report;
