Implementation in the statistics Approximately 30 statistics (structural business statistics, short term statistics, synthesis statistics) are involved. Coordination must be assured to guarantee a coherent system (NACE Rev. 2 implementation will be carried out from 2008 until 2011, coordinated with the National Accounts) Plan time needed to recalculate survey plans Evaluate back-casting strategies and their costs Develop global publication plan (data will be published according to two different classifications)
