This approximation is permitted for a period of five years from the date of entry into force of the Regulation. This period shall be extended for up to five more years unless decided differently in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18. 4. Starting from the beginning of the first reference period the information on persons employed (No 210) may be approximated by the number of employees (No 211). This approximation is permitted for a peirod of five years from the date of entry into force of the Regulation. This period shall be extended by up to five more years unless decided differently in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18. 5.

The variables need not be transmitted at these detailed levels by those Member States whose total value added of Section C of NACE Rev. 2 in a given base year represents less than 4 % of the European Community total. 3. The variables transmitted at the 3-digit and 4-digit levels of NACE Rev. 2 are used to produce aggregated indicators at these levels for the Community as a whole and for the group of Member States participating in the single currency. These indicators may also be disseminated at 3-digit and 4-digit levels for individual Member States and other groupings of Member States, where the Member States concerned have indicated that the data are of sufficient quality. 4. In addition, all variables except for the turnover and new orders variables (No 120, 121, 122, 130, 131, 132) are to be transmitted for total industry defined as NACE Rev. 2 Sections B to E and the main industrial groupings (MIGs) as defined in Commission Regulation (EC) No 586/2001 OJ L 86, 27.3.2001, p. 11 .5.

1. The statistics in this Annex comprise the following variables: Variables Name 120 Turnover 210 Number of persons employed 310 Output prices 2. Starting from the beginning of the first reference period the information on persons employed (No 210) may be approximated by the number of employees (No 211). This approximation is permitted for a period of five years from the date of entry into force of the Regulation. The period shall be extended by up to five more years unless decided differently in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18. 3. The output price variable (No 310) covers services delivered to customers that are enterprises or persons representing enterprises. 4. Member States shall carry out studies instituted by the Commission and set up in consultation with the Member States. The studies shall be carried out taking into account the benefits of collecting the data in relation to the cost of collection and burden on business, in order to: -
(a) assess the feasibility of transmitting a quarterly variable of hours worked (No 220) for other services; (b) assess the feasibility of transmitting a quarterly variable of gross wages and salaries (No 230) for other services; (c) define a suitable methodology for data collection and index calculation; (d) define a suitable level of detail. The data shall be broken down by economic activities defined by NACE Rev 2 Sections and by further dis-aggregations, not beyond the level of NACE Rev 2 Divisions (two-digit level) or groupings of Divisions.
Member States shall submit a report on the results of the studies to the Commission not later than 11 August 2007 .Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18, the Commission shall decide no later than 11 August 2008 whether to invoke Article 17(b) so as to include the variable hours worked (No 220) and the variable gross wages and salaries (No 230) with effect from base year 2010.-
1. All of the variables are to be transmitted in unadjusted form, if available. 2. The turnover variable (No 120) is also to be transmitted in working-day adjusted form. Wherever other variables show working-day effects, Member States may also transmit those variables in working-day adjusted form. The list of variables to be transmitted in working-day adjusted form may be amended in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 18. 3. In addition Member States may transmit the variables seasonally adjusted and may also transmit the variables in the form of trend cycles. Only if data are not transmitted in these forms, may the Commission (Eurostat) produce seasonally adjusted and trend-cycle series for these variables. 4. The output price variable (No 310) is to be transmitted as an index. All other variables are to be transmitted as an index or as absolute figures.
