1 Project Background

11 IntroductionThe objective of the CAPRI-RD project is the development of a Pan-European tool for regional and spatial policy impact analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) with regard to Rural Development (RD) indicators The framework is the CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact) modelling system for the agricultural sector of the EU on NUTS2 scale CAPRI is a partial equilibrium (PE) model designed for simulating very detailed policy scenarios in the context of the CAP Within CAPRI-RD the CAPRI model will be linked with a newly developed regional Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model currently named ReguEU It will be based on the RegFin and RegPol modelling systems developed by Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska (2009) Regionalised Social Accounting Matrixes (SAM) at the NUTS2 level will be a key input for the foreseen modelling systems and also a valuable outcome of the whole CAPRI-RD project This database will allow the usage of the regional CGE model for the quantitative evaluation of regional development and agricultural polices of the EU on a full regional scaleWithin the CAPRI-RD project the planned regional database will have to meet the requirements indicated by the Deliverable 222 Compilation of national SAMs for 27 EU Member States in the format required by the regional CGEsThis deliverable offers an overview on the availability of relevant datasets to compute the needed dataset at NUTS2 level As stated in the previous deliverables of this Work Package the compilation of the regional SAMs from a single source would have been desirable Unfortunately a first screening of the regional datasets available from Eurostat showed that a variety of supplementary datasets will be required to achieve the objectives of this Work Package The deliverable presented here confirms this first insight In this report other sources as available data at IPTS national and regional statistical department of the member states former EU Research Projects and other relevant research institutions database have been investigated Apart from providing an overview of the existing and available databases with relevance for the compilation of the regionalised SAMs this deliverable prepares the subsequent steps of this Work Package This inventory clarifies which are the data available and which are those that should be estimated starting from the methodologies sketched by Deliverable 221 Methodological review of SAMs regionalization

12 Contents and Structure of the RegEU SAMs DatabaseThe targeted RegEU SAMs database consists of numerous sub-tables which may be broadly classified into core-SAM accounts and satellite or auxiliary accounts The core datasets are those which actually appear in the final SAMs such as intermediate demand distinguished by origin and economic branch or compensation of employees by branch Satellite accounts may serve as control-totals for the core datasets for instance in the case of gross value-added which does not appear as such in the final SAM but is the sum of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo ldquonet taxes on productionrdquo and ldquooperating surplusrdquoA crucial feature of the RegEU SAMs database is the distinction of some items by their origin ie if they were produced in the same region in which they were consumed or imported from a different region in the same country or imported from abroad The core SAMs and the respective sub-matrices are summarized in a simplified manner below

The branch dimension (b) has been determined in Deliverable 222 of the CAPRI-RD Project (Table 1) Dimension b should contain 14 single branches as elements As data availability allow for a more detailed disaggregation of branches in this deliverable we decided to further disaggregate fishing and mining (instead of a more general other primary goods sector) a fuel sector out of the manufacturing one and education and financial service sectors The final disaggregation contains 14 branches It is very important to note here that the RegEU27 SAMs follow a strict industry-by-industry (or activity by activity) scheme Primary factors(f) contains the elements ldquoLabourrdquo and ldquoCapitalrdquo Trade partners (w) for each region are either the intra-national markets for trade between regions or the external markets for inter-

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

323 Slovenia (SI)The Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SISTAT) published regional account including gross value-added and employment by branch at NUTS II level 13 branches are distinguishedFurther investigation revealed that a partners of the CAPRI-RD project were also involved in the REAPBALK project (see section 44) during which regional IOTs for Slovenia were compiled The exchange of the relevant information is foreseen

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

1 Project Background

11 IntroductionThe objective of the CAPRI-RD project is the development of a Pan-European tool for regional and spatial policy impact analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) with regard to Rural Development (RD) indicators The framework is the CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact) modelling system for the agricultural sector of the EU on NUTS2 scale CAPRI is a partial equilibrium (PE) model designed for simulating very detailed policy scenarios in the context of the CAP Within CAPRI-RD the CAPRI model will be linked with a newly developed regional Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model currently named ReguEU It will be based on the RegFin and RegPol modelling systems developed by Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska (2009) Regionalised Social Accounting Matrixes (SAM) at the NUTS2 level will be a key input for the foreseen modelling systems and also a valuable outcome of the whole CAPRI-RD project This database will allow the usage of the regional CGE model for the quantitative evaluation of regional development and agricultural polices of the EU on a full regional scaleWithin the CAPRI-RD project the planned regional database will have to meet the requirements indicated by the Deliverable 222 Compilation of national SAMs for 27 EU Member States in the format required by the regional CGEsThis deliverable offers an overview on the availability of relevant datasets to compute the needed dataset at NUTS2 level As stated in the previous deliverables of this Work Package the compilation of the regional SAMs from a single source would have been desirable Unfortunately a first screening of the regional datasets available from Eurostat showed that a variety of supplementary datasets will be required to achieve the objectives of this Work Package The deliverable presented here confirms this first insight In this report other sources as available data at IPTS national and regional statistical department of the member states former EU Research Projects and other relevant research institutions database have been investigated Apart from providing an overview of the existing and available databases with relevance for the compilation of the regionalised SAMs this deliverable prepares the subsequent steps of this Work Package This inventory clarifies which are the data available and which are those that should be estimated starting from the methodologies sketched by Deliverable 221 Methodological review of SAMs regionalization

12 Contents and Structure of the RegEU SAMs DatabaseThe targeted RegEU SAMs database consists of numerous sub-tables which may be broadly classified into core-SAM accounts and satellite or auxiliary accounts The core datasets are those which actually appear in the final SAMs such as intermediate demand distinguished by origin and economic branch or compensation of employees by branch Satellite accounts may serve as control-totals for the core datasets for instance in the case of gross value-added which does not appear as such in the final SAM but is the sum of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo ldquonet taxes on productionrdquo and ldquooperating surplusrdquoA crucial feature of the RegEU SAMs database is the distinction of some items by their origin ie if they were produced in the same region in which they were consumed or imported from a different region in the same country or imported from abroad The core SAMs and the respective sub-matrices are summarized in a simplified manner below

The branch dimension (b) has been determined in Deliverable 222 of the CAPRI-RD Project (Table 1) Dimension b should contain 14 single branches as elements As data availability allow for a more detailed disaggregation of branches in this deliverable we decided to further disaggregate fishing and mining (instead of a more general other primary goods sector) a fuel sector out of the manufacturing one and education and financial service sectors The final disaggregation contains 14 branches It is very important to note here that the RegEU27 SAMs follow a strict industry-by-industry (or activity by activity) scheme Primary factors(f) contains the elements ldquoLabourrdquo and ldquoCapitalrdquo Trade partners (w) for each region are either the intra-national markets for trade between regions or the external markets for inter-

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

1 Project Background

11 IntroductionThe objective of the CAPRI-RD project is the development of a Pan-European tool for regional and spatial policy impact analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) with regard to Rural Development (RD) indicators The framework is the CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact) modelling system for the agricultural sector of the EU on NUTS2 scale CAPRI is a partial equilibrium (PE) model designed for simulating very detailed policy scenarios in the context of the CAP Within CAPRI-RD the CAPRI model will be linked with a newly developed regional Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model currently named ReguEU It will be based on the RegFin and RegPol modelling systems developed by Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska (2009) Regionalised Social Accounting Matrixes (SAM) at the NUTS2 level will be a key input for the foreseen modelling systems and also a valuable outcome of the whole CAPRI-RD project This database will allow the usage of the regional CGE model for the quantitative evaluation of regional development and agricultural polices of the EU on a full regional scaleWithin the CAPRI-RD project the planned regional database will have to meet the requirements indicated by the Deliverable 222 Compilation of national SAMs for 27 EU Member States in the format required by the regional CGEsThis deliverable offers an overview on the availability of relevant datasets to compute the needed dataset at NUTS2 level As stated in the previous deliverables of this Work Package the compilation of the regional SAMs from a single source would have been desirable Unfortunately a first screening of the regional datasets available from Eurostat showed that a variety of supplementary datasets will be required to achieve the objectives of this Work Package The deliverable presented here confirms this first insight In this report other sources as available data at IPTS national and regional statistical department of the member states former EU Research Projects and other relevant research institutions database have been investigated Apart from providing an overview of the existing and available databases with relevance for the compilation of the regionalised SAMs this deliverable prepares the subsequent steps of this Work Package This inventory clarifies which are the data available and which are those that should be estimated starting from the methodologies sketched by Deliverable 221 Methodological review of SAMs regionalization

12 Contents and Structure of the RegEU SAMs DatabaseThe targeted RegEU SAMs database consists of numerous sub-tables which may be broadly classified into core-SAM accounts and satellite or auxiliary accounts The core datasets are those which actually appear in the final SAMs such as intermediate demand distinguished by origin and economic branch or compensation of employees by branch Satellite accounts may serve as control-totals for the core datasets for instance in the case of gross value-added which does not appear as such in the final SAM but is the sum of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo ldquonet taxes on productionrdquo and ldquooperating surplusrdquoA crucial feature of the RegEU SAMs database is the distinction of some items by their origin ie if they were produced in the same region in which they were consumed or imported from a different region in the same country or imported from abroad The core SAMs and the respective sub-matrices are summarized in a simplified manner below

The branch dimension (b) has been determined in Deliverable 222 of the CAPRI-RD Project (Table 1) Dimension b should contain 14 single branches as elements As data availability allow for a more detailed disaggregation of branches in this deliverable we decided to further disaggregate fishing and mining (instead of a more general other primary goods sector) a fuel sector out of the manufacturing one and education and financial service sectors The final disaggregation contains 14 branches It is very important to note here that the RegEU27 SAMs follow a strict industry-by-industry (or activity by activity) scheme Primary factors(f) contains the elements ldquoLabourrdquo and ldquoCapitalrdquo Trade partners (w) for each region are either the intra-national markets for trade between regions or the external markets for inter-

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

1 Project Background

11 IntroductionThe objective of the CAPRI-RD project is the development of a Pan-European tool for regional and spatial policy impact analysis of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) with regard to Rural Development (RD) indicators The framework is the CAPRI (Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact) modelling system for the agricultural sector of the EU on NUTS2 scale CAPRI is a partial equilibrium (PE) model designed for simulating very detailed policy scenarios in the context of the CAP Within CAPRI-RD the CAPRI model will be linked with a newly developed regional Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model currently named ReguEU It will be based on the RegFin and RegPol modelling systems developed by Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska (2009) Regionalised Social Accounting Matrixes (SAM) at the NUTS2 level will be a key input for the foreseen modelling systems and also a valuable outcome of the whole CAPRI-RD project This database will allow the usage of the regional CGE model for the quantitative evaluation of regional development and agricultural polices of the EU on a full regional scaleWithin the CAPRI-RD project the planned regional database will have to meet the requirements indicated by the Deliverable 222 Compilation of national SAMs for 27 EU Member States in the format required by the regional CGEsThis deliverable offers an overview on the availability of relevant datasets to compute the needed dataset at NUTS2 level As stated in the previous deliverables of this Work Package the compilation of the regional SAMs from a single source would have been desirable Unfortunately a first screening of the regional datasets available from Eurostat showed that a variety of supplementary datasets will be required to achieve the objectives of this Work Package The deliverable presented here confirms this first insight In this report other sources as available data at IPTS national and regional statistical department of the member states former EU Research Projects and other relevant research institutions database have been investigated Apart from providing an overview of the existing and available databases with relevance for the compilation of the regionalised SAMs this deliverable prepares the subsequent steps of this Work Package This inventory clarifies which are the data available and which are those that should be estimated starting from the methodologies sketched by Deliverable 221 Methodological review of SAMs regionalization

12 Contents and Structure of the RegEU SAMs DatabaseThe targeted RegEU SAMs database consists of numerous sub-tables which may be broadly classified into core-SAM accounts and satellite or auxiliary accounts The core datasets are those which actually appear in the final SAMs such as intermediate demand distinguished by origin and economic branch or compensation of employees by branch Satellite accounts may serve as control-totals for the core datasets for instance in the case of gross value-added which does not appear as such in the final SAM but is the sum of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo ldquonet taxes on productionrdquo and ldquooperating surplusrdquoA crucial feature of the RegEU SAMs database is the distinction of some items by their origin ie if they were produced in the same region in which they were consumed or imported from a different region in the same country or imported from abroad The core SAMs and the respective sub-matrices are summarized in a simplified manner below

The branch dimension (b) has been determined in Deliverable 222 of the CAPRI-RD Project (Table 1) Dimension b should contain 14 single branches as elements As data availability allow for a more detailed disaggregation of branches in this deliverable we decided to further disaggregate fishing and mining (instead of a more general other primary goods sector) a fuel sector out of the manufacturing one and education and financial service sectors The final disaggregation contains 14 branches It is very important to note here that the RegEU27 SAMs follow a strict industry-by-industry (or activity by activity) scheme Primary factors(f) contains the elements ldquoLabourrdquo and ldquoCapitalrdquo Trade partners (w) for each region are either the intra-national markets for trade between regions or the external markets for inter-

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

The branch dimension (b) has been determined in Deliverable 222 of the CAPRI-RD Project (Table 1) Dimension b should contain 14 single branches as elements As data availability allow for a more detailed disaggregation of branches in this deliverable we decided to further disaggregate fishing and mining (instead of a more general other primary goods sector) a fuel sector out of the manufacturing one and education and financial service sectors The final disaggregation contains 14 branches It is very important to note here that the RegEU27 SAMs follow a strict industry-by-industry (or activity by activity) scheme Primary factors(f) contains the elements ldquoLabourrdquo and ldquoCapitalrdquo Trade partners (w) for each region are either the intra-national markets for trade between regions or the external markets for inter-

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

national trade between countries A distinction between intra- and extra-European trade is not foreseen Furthermore the database does not include bi-lateral flows between regions of a country or even between regions of the European Union with 27 Member States Regional consumers (d) are regional governments and householdsIntermediate demand matrices (A and Aw) will be generally available on national scale Primary factor payments (F) may be derived from a) value-added by sectors and b) employment by sectors Data on regional trade flows (AwCwIwEwE) are likely to be unavailable for the major part of regions Final consumption (C) and investment demand (I) will in the best of cases be available as an aggregate The initially mentioned satellite accounts will therefore contain the type of information that is not directly part of the SAMs but will serve to derive and control the required SAM entries The structure of the satellite accounts and the correspondences with the SAM accounts S are illustrated below

To ensure the consistency of the database to be developed with the ESA95 standards the classification scheme used here follows in general the ESA95 nomenclature (see Table 1) Exceptions originate from the specific needs of the regionalised database for which eg the category ldquop2i Use of imported products cifrdquo was subdivided into ldquop2d Use of imported products of domestic origin cifrdquo and ldquop2f Use of imported products of foreign origin cifrdquoThe newly introduced codes are highlighted in red in Table 1

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

323 Slovenia (SI)The Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SISTAT) published regional account including gross value-added and employment by branch at NUTS II level 13 branches are distinguishedFurther investigation revealed that a partners of the CAPRI-RD project were also involved in the REAPBALK project (see section 44) during which regional IOTs for Slovenia were compiled The exchange of the relevant information is foreseen

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

13 Nomenclature of Territorial Units for StatisticsThe Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) subdivides each Member State into a whole number of regions at NUTS 1 level Each of these is then subdivided into regions at NUTS level 2 and these in turn into regions at NUTS level 3 The internal administrative structure of the Member States is generally based on two of these three main regional levels This existing national administrative structure may be for example

bull Germany at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (respectively the Laumlnder and Kreise)

bull United Kingdom at NUTS 1 and NUTS 3 levels (standard regions and counties)

bull France at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regions and deacutepartements)

bull Spain at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (Comunidades autonoacutemas and provincias)

bull Italy at NUTS 2 and NUTS 3 (regioni and province)

Providing a complete breakdown ie at all three NUTS levels therefore means identifying a regional level for each Member State in addition to the two main levels mentioned aboveThis additional level thus corresponds to a regional structure that is less extensively used for administrative purposes - or which may indeed be instituted solely for this statistical purpose without having any administrative function whatever Depending on which levels already exist the additional level may be created at any one of the three NUTS levels Since France for example has functional administrative units at level 2 and 3 the additional level is introduced at NUTS level 1 This is also the case for Italy Greece and Spain By contrast the additional non-administrative level is at NUTS level 2 for Germany and the United Kingdom and at NUTS level 3 for BelgiumThe NUTS regulation lays down the following minimum and maximum population thresholds for the average size of the NUTS regions

LEVEL Minimum Maximum

bull NUTS 1 3 million 7 million

bull NUTS 2 800 000 3 million

bull NUTS 3 150 000 800 000

The number of NUTS II regions per Member State varies remarkably as depicted in Figure 1 UK and Germany have by far the highest number of NUTS II regions (37 and 39 respectively) followed by France Italy and Spain The mentioned five Member States together cover more than half of the 271 NUTS II regions in the EU thus potentially making it possible to retrieve the bulk of needed data by contacting five statistical organisations In contrast the three Baltic States Estonia Latvia and Lithuania the islands Cyprus and Malta and Luxemburg consist of only one NUTS II region so that data on national scale are sufficient for the purposes of this project

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

16

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

310 France (FR)In the regional account section (comptes regionaux annuel) the Institut National de la Statistique et des Eacutetudes Eacuteconomiques (INSEE) publishes information on gross value-added at NUTS II level The branches follow a national classification system (NES Nomenclature Economique de Synthegravese) with 14 branches This NES system is not compatible with the target RegEU SAMs classification and does not offer a significant informational gain over the Eurostat database (Table 18) Data on employment wages and salaries or other branch account indicators are only provided on an aggregate level per region Branch account datasets were provided with a breakdown for six branches similar to the Eurostat data (NACE A6)During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul the current results of this inventory were presented It was suggested also to contact staff members from INRA-ENESAD in Dijon concerning French regional data sources

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

2 Review of datasets available from the European Commission

The first step in the compilation of this inventory was the review of datasets available from the European Commission namely Eurostat and the JRC Institute for Prospective Technological Studies (IPTS)

21 IPTSOf particular relevance are the IPTSrsquo national IOT developed by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) as they cover all 27 EU Member States for the year 2000 The Eurostat homepage presents the different datasets on regional and national scale in numerous domains The work by Muumlller et el (2009) was crucial to identify the linkages between Eurostat datasets from these domains The Regional Economic Modelling (REMO) action at IPTS has commissioned the compilation of regional IOTs for five Member States Hungary Poland Czech Republic and Slovak Republic on NUTS 2 and the German Federal States (NUTS1)

22 National Datasets from Eurostat

221 National Accounts ndash Supply use and Input-output tables (NAIO)

Supply and use tables are matrices by product and industry describing production processes and the transactions in products of the national economy with great detail A symmetric input-output table is a product-by-product or industry-by-industry matrix It rearranges both supply and use in a single table with identical classification of products (or industries respectively) applied for both rows and columns The following tables are provided

bull 1500 Supply Table

bull 1600 Use Table

bull 1700 Symmetric Input-Output Table

bull 1800 Input-output Table for Domestic Output

bull 1900 Input-Output Table for Imports

Regarding products Eurostat applies the CPA P60 classification that delineates 59 products For the classification of industries Eurostat uses NACE rev11 A60 as reference which distinguishes 59 industriesAs tables 1800 and 1900 permit the distinction of usage by their origin (domestic and foreign) they represent the most valuable input for the RegEU SAMs database Their availability is show in Table 2 For 2005 these tables are available for 20 Member States

12

whereas for the year 2000 missing tables can be filled by the tables created by Rueda-Cantuche et al (2009) It has to be noted that Table 2 indicates only that the IOT contain values but not that they are complete In some cases particularly for smaller Member States some industry accounts are filled with placeholders indicating that the release of numerical values is subject to data protection regulations

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

The Austrian Institute for Economic Research (ldquoOumlsterreichisches Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschungldquo WIFO) has published a documentation on the creation of two regional IOTs for Upper Austria and Styria (Fritz et al 2003) with 55 branches IOTs for all nine Austrian NUTS II regions in this branch structure have been developed for 2001 and an update for 2005 is ongoing These tables are not survey-based and therefore of limited use for testing estimation procedures within these project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

222 National Accounts - Annual National Accounts (NAMA)

In addition to the national IOT from the NAIO domain information from the Annual National Accounts (NAMA) was obtained These datasets provide longer time-series for some indicators like ldquob1g gross value-added at basic pricesrdquo or ldquop1 output at basic pricesrdquo and can be used to adjust the IOT available only for 2000 for the targeted base-year 2005 The coverage of indicators in the used NAMA datasets is listed in Table 3

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

16

Source httpeppeurostateceuropaeuportalpageportalregion_citiesregional_statisticsdatadatabase

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

The datasets nama_nace60_e and nama_nace60_c have the highest level of detail for the economic branches and are the only ones that provide information for agriculture and forestry separately as needed for the targeted RegEU SAMs database From 27 Member Statesrsquo datasets only 14 cover all 14 branches (Table 4) However closer examination reveals that although figures for ldquoda15 Food products and beveragesrdquo is not available the aggregate ldquoda food products beverages and tobaccordquo exists It is therefore to be considered whether the initially desired level of disaggregation should be maintained

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Note Bold fonts indicate missing branches Red and blue fonts indicate missing IOTs for 2005 (see Table 2)

When comparing Tables 2 and 4 it appears that Bulgaria Cyprus Luxemburg Malta and UK are the most critical Member States in terms of data availability on national scale Missing data for ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo in Bulgaria and UK may be filled by using the agriculture and forestry data from the available IOTs to split the aggregate ldquoardquo Missing data for ldquoda15rdquo may be replaced by ldquodardquo if it could be decided to deviate from the original ldquoda15rdquo disaggregation For Luxemburg it has to be clarified whether ldquob Fisheriesrdquo and ldquodf fuel industriesrdquo do not exist as branches or if they are just missing In general it appears that a full set of branch indicators (p1 p2 d1 b1g emp) can be generated by combining NAIO and NAMA data on a case-by-case basis Thus it could be possible to update the missing national IOT for the year 2005

223 National Accounts ndash Annual Sector Accounts (NASA)

The annual sector accounts (NASA) contain data on flows between sectors domestic institutions and the rest or the world In this respect NASA is the only source for eg factor incomes from abroad transfers received by households and direct taxes paid by enterprises

15

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

16

Source httpeppeurostateceuropaeuportalpageportalregion_citiesregional_statisticsdatadatabase

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

and households All information is available in one file (nasa_simplif) which contains a simplified version of the full sequence of monetary flows which is still sufficient for the national SAMs Following Muumlller et al 2009 the most relevant elements of the NASA datasets for the compilation of national SAMs are the items

bull d4 Property income

bull d5 Current taxes on income wealth etc

bull d6 Social contributions and benefits

bull d7 Other current transfers

bull d8 Adjustment for the change in net equity of households in pension funds reserves

bull d9 Capital transfers

bull d1 Compensation of employees

bull b2g_b3g Gross operating surplus and gross mixed income

The taxes and transfer accounts (d4 to d9) between governments households and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo are crucial to determine direct tax rates and governmental expenditures For 2005 24 Member States are covered Cyprus Luxemburg and Malta being the exceptions for d5 d6 and d7 For the distribution of factor incomes (d1 b2g_b3g) to either domestic or foreign institutions all 27 Member States are covered

224 Summary National Datasets from Eurostat

Concerning national IOTs in the desired format (ie NAIO Tables 1800 and 1900) 20 Member States are covered for the year 2005 As a full set of IOTs is available for the year 2000 (either from Eurostat or Rueda-Cantuche et al 2009) the first step will be to update the IOTs for the missing 7 Member States This can be done by using a completed NAMA dataset for the relevant branch indicators The distribution of the national income across the domestic institutions and the ldquoRest of the Worldrdquo can implemented in the national SAMs by combining updated IOTs and NASA datasets The critical Members States are Luxemburg Cyprus and Malta as neither NAIO nor NAMA nor NASA datasets are fully available With regard to the regional database the problem is limited as these three Member States consist of only one NUTS II region each

23 Regional Datasets from EurostatThe ldquoRegional statistics (reg)ldquo section of Eurostat covers a wide range of indicators (see screenshot below) Particular attention was devoted to those sub-sections which provide information for the structure of economic branches in the NUTS II regions

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

231 Branch Accounts - ESA95 (reg_ecobrch)

The regional branch accounts provide information comparable to the name_nace06 datasets on national scale The following 6 branches are covered

bull A_B Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing

bull C_E Total industry (excluding construction)

bull F Construction

bull G_H_I Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication

bull J_K Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities

bull L_TO_P Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies

The indicators available for these branches are listed in Table 5 The most important property of the datasets reg_e3vabp95 and reg_e3empl95 is the full coverage of NUTS II regions in 2005 for the indicators ldquovalue-added at basic prices (b1g)rdquo and ldquototal employment (emp)rdquo while Cyprus and Luxemburg are missing in the case of reg_e2rem ndash which is not relevant as

17

the NUTS II region of these Member States is equal to the national level The obvious shortcoming of these datasets is the coarse representation of economic branches

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

232 Regional Structural Business Statistics (reg_sbs)

The structural business indicators cover the NACE Rev 11 sections C to K with a breakdown of branches at the 2-digit level in the case of the dataset ldquoRegional data (NUTS 06) (sbs_r_nuts03)rdquo This dataset provides figures on employment (emp) and wages and salaries (d11) among others The degree of completeness varies significantly across the considered branches The availability of data for ldquoda15rdquo and ldquodardquo is shown in Table 6 Full coverage of NUTS 2 regions for ldquodardquo is reached in 13 Member States with more than one NUTS II region As ldquofood industryrdquo is most likely to be present in all NUTS II regions coverage below 100 may indicate that the regional markets are dominated by few enterprises which would cause data protection regulations to apply If this is the case then national or regional statistical institutions may neither be entitled to publish the respective information Given the severe amount of missing data and the lack of data on ldquogross value-addedrdquo by branches these datasets have only a limited use for the RegEU SAMs database but will be exploited in case national statistic do not provide additional information

233 Regional Agriculture Statistics (reg_agr)

As ldquoa01 agriculturerdquo is neither covered in the branch accounts nor in the structural business statistics the Economic Accounts for Agriculture (EAA) namely the dataset ldquoAgricultural accounts according to EAA 97 Rev11 (agr_r_accts)rdquo was also evaluated in some detail The EAA are a satellite account of ESA95 providing complementary information and concepts adapted to the particular nature of the agricultural industry Despite the definitional differences to ESA95 the availability of ldquocompensation of employeesrdquo (d1 in ESA95 23000 in EAA) and ldquogross value-addedrdquo (b1g in ESA95 20000 in EAA) was investigated on NUTS II level as shown in Table 7 Full coverage is given for 19 Member States in 2005 coverage above zero and below 100 can be observed for the Czech Republic Italy has full coverage for b1g but zero coverage for d1 The remaining countries have no entries

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Agriculture hunting forestry and fishing A2B 3Total industry (excluding construction) C2E 5Construction F00 1Wholesale and retail trade repair of motor vehicles motorcycles and personal and household goods hotels and restaurants transport storage and communication G2I 3Financial intermediation real estate renting and business activities J2K 2Public administration and defence compulsory social security education health and social work other community social and personal service activities private households with employed persons extra-territorial organizations and bodies L2P 5

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

234 Summary Regional Datasets from Eurostat

The regional branch accounts have despite their coarse representation of economic branches full coverage for all NUTS II regions and are therefore a most valuable asset for the subsequent compilation steps A breakdown to 14 branches could be achieved by using the NAMA and NAIO datasets on national scale for the indicators d1 b1g and emp Structural Business Statistics and EAA data will then be used as supplements if available

24 Preliminary Conclusion and PropositionThe Eurostat datasets represent the fundamental database for the RegEU SAMs database It is understood that statistical information from Member States will be used as exhaustively as

20

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

b In case the NAMA does not provide information on the A60 but on the A16 aggregation level (which is the case for all Member States see Table 4) then the respective NAIO tables 1800 and 1900 will be used to create this breakdown by calculating the share of the A60 branches in their respective aggregates at A16 level

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

possible but in case no additional information becomes available Eurostat datasets will be used as fall-back option Based on the evaluation of the national and regional datasets the following steps are proposed

1 Complete the NAMA series (namely nama_nace60_c nama_nace60_e) for the 14 target sectors for the period between 2000 and 2005 This will be done by using the shares of the A60 aggregation level with practically 59 branches in the A16 aggregation level with 16 branches In case national IOTs are not available than the shares from the year 2000 will be used The completion procedure could be thought of as follows

a Use the NAMA indictors if available to create a time series on aggregate intermediate demand value-added components (b1g d1) and employment (emp sal)

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

310 France (FR)In the regional account section (comptes regionaux annuel) the Institut National de la Statistique et des Eacutetudes Eacuteconomiques (INSEE) publishes information on gross value-added at NUTS II level The branches follow a national classification system (NES Nomenclature Economique de Synthegravese) with 14 branches This NES system is not compatible with the target RegEU SAMs classification and does not offer a significant informational gain over the Eurostat database (Table 18) Data on employment wages and salaries or other branch account indicators are only provided on an aggregate level per region Branch account datasets were provided with a breakdown for six branches similar to the Eurostat data (NACE A6)During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul the current results of this inventory were presented It was suggested also to contact staff members from INRA-ENESAD in Dijon concerning French regional data sources

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

2 Update the national IOTs to a common base-year 2005 This step can already be a test-case for the compilation procedures applied at the regional level A limited set of yearly available branch indicators (gross value-added compensation of employees employment) will be combined with SAM-coefficients from another year or regional level In the simplest case an iterative procedure like RAS could be used to update the national IOTs to the new row- and column-totals for the branch accounts (p1) As such a procedure would not take advantage of other available information (b1g d1 emp etc) a more refined compilation and balancing procedure will have to be developed

3 Create a set of branch indicators at regional scale This step could build on the fact that the regional branch accounts cover 100 of the NUTS II regions although with a coarse representation of six branches (A6 eg reg_e3vabp95 see Table 5) Similar to the usage of shares of A60 branches in their A16 aggregates on national scale the shares of the 14 target branches (b10) in the A6 aggregates on national scale could be combined with the regional A6 data

4 Compile a set of regional IOTs for 2005 based on national IOTs and regional branch indicators Similar to updating the national IOTs a simple RAS procedure could be thought of as a starting point to compile a prior set of regional IOTs Again this would not exploit the full range of available information and a more elaborate procedure will have to be developed

The main conclusion from the evaluation of the Eurostat datasets is that it is in general possible to derive regional IOTs Also the regional branch indicators AVLR as discussed under step 3 may serve as a benchmark for the evaluation of informational gain when considering the purchase of regional data from the Member Statesrsquo statistical institutions

22

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

3 Review of datasets available from the Member States

The second step was to browse the homepages of the national statistical institutes of the Member StatesIn general the national classification schemes follow closely ndash but not fully ndash the ESA95 systemTo evaluate and compare the gain of information from contacting the Member States statistical institutions the number of additional data points across all branches was summarized in an indicator This ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator was constructed based on the following considerations Number of branches in RegEU SAMs 14Number of branch aggregates in Eurostatrsquos regional branch accounts 6Number of RegEU SAMs branches in A6

NACE A6 Name CodeNo of RegEU SAMsbranches in A6 (na6)

Under the strong assumption that the regional datasets are consistent with the Eurostat branch accounts one would need (na6-1) additional data points to construct the full RegEU SAMsbranch accounts (eg if data on a01 and a02 are available then the remaining entry for b could be obtained residually provided that a01+a02 lt A2B)The ldquoinformational gainrdquo indicator over all branches (TIG) was then constructed as follows

The aggregator matrix G10_AR is constructed by assigning ones to branches that can be mapped in a many-to-one way to the 14 RegEU SAMs branches and zeroes otherwise The

23

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

indicator can range between 0 (no informational gain as if compared to Eurostat data) and 1 which indicates a full coverage of RegEU SAMs branches for the respective indicator It has to be noted that TIG measures only potential gain of information as it counts only the number of usable branch classifications in the national datasets An actual evaluation of the contents of the obtained datasets will be a task for the coming stages of the project An example for the calculation of TIG is provided in Annex 1

31 Belgium (BE)Population and migration data can be obtained from the National Statistical office on NUTS IIlevel The contents of the Belgostat database maintained by the National Bank of Belgiumare shown on the screenshot below Symmetric IOTs are not available but national supply and use tables from 1995 to 2004 which are similar to the datasets published via the Eurostat homepage Regional accounts consist of indicators comparable to the regional branch accounts available at Eurostat but with a higher breakdown by branches The breakdown of branches in the regions follows in general the NACE A31 breakdown with 31 branches (intermediate level) with the exception of agriculture forestry and fisheries which are merged into one aggregate (see Table 9) Datasets for agriculture forestry and food industry separately are not provided due to confidentiality problems

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

However a number of academic publications concerning regional IOTs for Bulgaria could be found particularly in Golemanova (2007) for the South-Eastern Region

Further investigation revealed that the compilation of regional IOTs for Bulgaria was part of the REAPBALK project (see section 44)

The IOT for the South-Eastern Region of Bulgaria (NUTS II code BG34 Yugoiztochen) on which the paper by Golemanova (2007) is based covers 29 branches (See Table 11) Obtaining only the branch accounts would result in an informational gain of 077 but only for one out of six NUTS II regions in Bulgaria reducing the informational gain to 013

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

35 Germany (DE)With Germany being the Member State with the most NUTS II regions (39) in the EU the statistical departments on federal and regional (NUTS1) level were screened in some detail The first observation was that there is a difference between data availability on NUTS1 and NUTS II scales Main reason for this is the fact that in contrast to other Member States like Italy or France NUTS II is not an administrative unit in the German regional structure The federal states (Laumlnder) represent the NUTS1 level in Germany administratively subdivided into districts (Kreise) at NUTS3 scale By contrast NUTS II is an administratively heterogeneous layer Of the 39 NUTS regions of Germany 22 are equivalent to ldquogovernment regionsrdquo (Regierungsbezirke) 7 are equivalent to meanwhile abolished ldquogovernment regionsrdquo 2 are non-administrative regions and 8 are equivalent to the NUTS1 level The organisation of the statistical agencies follows the original administrative structure (NUTS1 and NUTS3) with the statesrsquo statistical departments (Statistische Landesaumlmter) as the main responsible units This organisational structure has implications for the availability of data on NUTS IIlevel As regional data is basically collected on NUTS3 level data protection regulations apply in many cases for their publication as some regional industries may be dominated by few enterprises Branch account data are therefore published with a breakdown of 16 (A to P) branches on NUTS1 level only and with a rather coarse 7-branch breakdown on NUTS II(and NUTS3) level (A_B C_D_E D F G_H_I J_K L_P) The screenshot below shows the availability of indicators on NUTS II scale where only gross value-added (Bruttowertschoumlpfung) and employment (Erwerbstaumltigkeit) are available in the 7-branch aggregation Compensation of employees is available for the aggregate C_F (industry including construction) only The results for the regional accounts are also summarized in Table 14

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

With 8 NUTS1 regions equivalent to the corresponding NUTS II level an average gain of information over the Eurostat datasets of 022 can be achieved for the regional branch accountsThe compilation of regional IOTs is not a responsibility of the statistical departments National tables with some detail are provided but they do not offer informational gain as the ones obtained from the Eurostat sites Some working groups and research institutes are compiling IOTs for the federal states of eastern Germany (Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschung Halle (IWH)) as well as for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg (Statistisches Landesamt Baden-Wuumlrttemberg) The latter provided an IOT with 27 branches for 1993 More recent IOTs are not available The correspondence of the branches in the IOT for Baden-Wuumlrttemberg in 1993 is shown in Table 15

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

The Zentrum fuumlr Europaumlische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW httpwwwzewdedemitarbeitermitarbeiterphp3action=mitaampkurz=alo) uses regional IOTs for Hessen and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg One other example for IOTs on NUTS II scale was published by the research centre in Juumllich for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Forschungszentrum Juumllich Kronenberg 2008) as shown below

Source Kronenberg 2008

The case of Germany highlights a problem which is likely to occur also in other Member States with a large number of NUTS II regions It is always possible (see also the UK section) that regional IOTs are available on NUTS I level The question is how this information can be used as they may be built by using methods inconsistent with the ones employed in the CAPRI-RD project which would not allow using them as deterministic control totals for the finally estimated IOTs Their use as stochastic control total as done by Muumlller et al (2009) could be an optionIn general to take advantage of the more detailed information on NUTS I level in Germany the first step will be the compilation of a full set of A16 branch accounts on NUTS II level by breaking down the A6 branches based on the shares derived from the NUTS I accounts similar to the treatment of branch accounts from Eurostat in section 23

36 Estonia (EE)Estonia consists of only one NUTS II region for which the full set of needed information is available from Eurostat and the national statistical institute for 2005 Additional enquiries were not necessary

37 Ireland (IE)The regional database of the Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSOI) provides information on a highly aggregate level (three branch aggregates see screenshot below)

32

Source httpwwwcsoiepxpxeirestatDialogSaveShowasp

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

More detailed information was kindly provided by CSOI for agriculture and forestry (A) as well as for food industry and tobacco (DA)

Source CSOI personal communication

Concerning the forestry sector the following information was retrieved ldquoAverage indicators on gross value-added and employment in the forestry sector for 2003 are 16 and 3 respectively of the totalsrdquo (CSOI staff personal communication) The additional information regarding agriculture forestry and food industry increased the informational gain for Ireland by 023 for the regional branch accounts

Further investigation regarding the existence of regional IOTs showed that a SAM with 36 branches for the Border Midland and Western region (BMW) was compiled by the BMW Regional Assembly (httpwwwbmwassemblyieinnovative_actionsbackgroundhtm Given the fact that Ireland consists of two NUTS II regions access to this BMW IOT would be very valuable as the IOT for the South-Western region could be derived from national and BMW IOT However it has to be noted that the breakdown of branches does not allow a many-to-

33

one mapping as particularly ldquodf fuel industryrdquo is merged with other branches (eg ldquoe electricityrdquo)

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

38 Greece (GE)The National Statistical Service of Greece provides regional account data for gross value-added and employment at a 6-branch aggregation level similar to Eurostat The homepages of Vangelis Tzouvelekas provides four NUTS II IOTs (base year 1999 29 branches Anatoliki Makedonia and Thraki Crete Dytiki Makedonia Kentriki Makedonia) as well as employment date by 59 branches for all NUTS II regions This means that at least for employment a gain of information by 100 compared to the Eurostat alternative can be achieved

39 Spain (ES)In the regional account section (Contabilidad Regional de Espantildea httpwwwineesjaximenudotype=pcaxisamppath=2Ft352Fp010ampfile=inebaseampL=0) the Instituto Nacional de Estadistica (INE) provides tables for all NUTS II regions (Comunidades autonoacutemas) covering the indicators gross value-added compensation of employees and employment The breakdown of branches is shown in Table 16 A regrettable feature of the applied aggregation of branches is the merging of ldquodf fuel industryrdquo with ldquoc mining and quarryingrdquo Concerning ldquoda food industryrdquo the already noted problem occurred that regional datasets provide information on ldquodardquo rather than on ldquoda15rdquo and ldquoda16rdquoThe ldquoEstadiacutestica de variaciones residencialesrdquo section at the INE homepage provides migratory annual flows both at a domestic between the different Spanish municipalities and a foreign between Spanish municipalities and foreign regions levelA particular property of the Spanish statistical system is the well developed compilation of IOTs The statistical departments of the ldquoComunidades autonoacutemasrdquo publish in 12 cases (see table 17) Supply- and Use-Tables as well as symmetric IOTs with a remarkably high breakdown of branches (81 for Andalucia 100 for Navarra etc) Although 12 regional classifications will have to be mapped with the target RegEU SAMs branches in the worst case these tables represent a very valuable asset for the RegEU SAMs project If they are indeed based on regional surveys rather than estimated (or at least mainly based on surveys) they will be an important resource for testing the estimation methods developed during the course of the project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

60

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

310 France (FR)In the regional account section (comptes regionaux annuel) the Institut National de la Statistique et des Eacutetudes Eacuteconomiques (INSEE) publishes information on gross value-added at NUTS II level The branches follow a national classification system (NES Nomenclature Economique de Synthegravese) with 14 branches This NES system is not compatible with the target RegEU SAMs classification and does not offer a significant informational gain over the Eurostat database (Table 18) Data on employment wages and salaries or other branch account indicators are only provided on an aggregate level per region Branch account datasets were provided with a breakdown for six branches similar to the Eurostat data (NACE A6)During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul the current results of this inventory were presented It was suggested also to contact staff members from INRA-ENESAD in Dijon concerning French regional data sources

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As Eurostat provides already one data-point for each A6 category in the form of a sub-total that would allow to calculate one entry residually the gain of information is again the number of entries less one

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

The Austrian Institute for Economic Research (ldquoOumlsterreichisches Institut fuumlr Wirtschaftsforschungldquo WIFO) has published a documentation on the creation of two regional IOTs for Upper Austria and Styria (Fritz et al 2003) with 55 branches IOTs for all nine Austrian NUTS II regions in this branch structure have been developed for 2001 and an update for 2005 is ongoing These tables are not survey-based and therefore of limited use for testing estimation procedures within these project

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

43 REAPampREEIOThe ldquoSustainable Consumption and Production Networkrdquo (SCPnet httpwwwscpnetorgukindexhtml) is a partnership network dedicated to promoting the philosophy of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) at a sub-national level The SCPnet is a reference point for Regional Development Agencies Regional Assemblies Government Offices for the Regions Regional Observatories and the regional offices of the Environment Agency It maintains two IOT-based models on their homepage

58

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

323 Slovenia (SI)The Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SISTAT) published regional account including gross value-added and employment by branch at NUTS II level 13 branches are distinguishedFurther investigation revealed that a partners of the CAPRI-RD project were also involved in the REAPBALK project (see section 44) during which regional IOTs for Slovenia were compiled The exchange of the relevant information is foreseen

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

323 Slovenia (SI)The Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SISTAT) published regional account including gross value-added and employment by branch at NUTS II level 13 branches are distinguishedFurther investigation revealed that a partners of the CAPRI-RD project were also involved in the REAPBALK project (see section 44) during which regional IOTs for Slovenia were compiled The exchange of the relevant information is foreseen

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

323 Slovenia (SI)The Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia (SISTAT) published regional account including gross value-added and employment by branch at NUTS II level 13 branches are distinguishedFurther investigation revealed that a partners of the CAPRI-RD project were also involved in the REAPBALK project (see section 44) during which regional IOTs for Slovenia were compiled The exchange of the relevant information is foreseen

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

Regional IOTs were also compiled by Andrea Bonfiglio (Bonfiglio 2005) for a 13-branch aggregation level (NACE at 1-digit level but services M to P merged) These IOTs are derived in a three-stage approach employing location quotients to break down a national IOT and gravity models to estimate trade flows Although interesting from a methodological point of view the thus estimated IOTs have only a limited value for the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

325 Finland (FI)Statistics Finland maintains a comparably extensive regional accounts section providing information for gross value added at basic prices output at basic prices intermediate consumption at purchaser price gross fixed capital formation and employment (employed self-employed) for 29 branches In general the structure of branches is in accordance with the RegEU SAMs target classification Unfortunately food industry is only available at an aggregate level (da) and fuel industry is merged with chemicals (df+dg+dh) Apart from this it is indicated on the homepage that regional IOTs are being constructed (see screenshot below)

Source httpwwwstatfitilaptindex_enhtml

The extended description of this database states that the IOTs will be based on ldquoRegister of Enterprises and Establishments corporate taxation records statistical databases of central and local governments statistics on agriculture and forestry and the Household Budget Surveyrdquo The tables will feature probably the same 29 branches as listed in Table 29 Although this database would represent a most valuable source for the CAPRI-RD project it will not be possible to rely on the possible future availabilityAn additional source of information is the database of the RegFIN model (Toumlrmauml H and K Zawalinska 2007) which was made available by Hannu Toumlrmauml for the RegEU SAMs database It consists of regional IOTs on NUTS II scale with 14 branches as foreseen in the CAPRI-RD project

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

328 Migration and Inter-Regional TradeThe focus of the survey of the EU Member Statesrsquo statistical departments was on the availability of regional branch account indicators like gross value-added and employment as these indicators represent the corner points of the RegEU SAMs database to be developed Datasets on population and migration are important indicators for the mobility of labour within and across the EU Member States Population figures are available for all NUTS IIregions from both Eurostat and national statistical organisation (NSO) while migration figures are not as easily obtainable Table 32 lists the availability of migration figures (either

51

net migration or immigrationemigration and either by sex or age group or total) In all cases the NSO provide more information than Eurostat with the exceptions of Denmark Greece France Malta and Portugal Obtaining these figures from other sources will be an important task throughout the duration of the RegEU SAMs project as they will be difficult to estimate

Concerning inter-regional trade the most comprehensive datasets could be obtained for Spain (as part of the regional IOTs) and Italy (see Table 33 for a list of responses) For UK the service ldquoUK Trade Infordquo (httpwwwuktradeinfocom) provides internal trade figures but the content of this database has not been screened as of 05032010

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

So for instance in the case of category A2B only 1 data-point could be effectively gained if compared to the Eurostat regional datasets To derive an indicator to measure the total informational gain across all branches the previous operations with the aggregator matrices G14_6 and G14_AR are combined to derive the total informational gain indicator (TIG) used throughout this inventory

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

329 SummaryThe main purpose of screening the data supply of the national statistical organisations was to retrieve information o the availability of regional IOTs In this respect the situation proved to be modestly satisfying as survey-based regional IOTs could only be obtained for 12 Comunidades Autonomas (NUTS II) of Spain and the NUTS1 regions Scotland and Baden-Wuumlrttemberg The IOTs obtained for Finland and those potentially available for Austria Italy and Poland are mainly based on non-survey methods The way in which both survey and non-survey based IOTs should be used in the following stages of the RegEU SAMs project will be subject to further elaboration

Regarding the availability of regional branch accounts that provide additional information to the datasets obtained from Eurostat screening the national statistical departmentsrsquo supply resulted in a rather mixed picture For freely available datasets the informational gain as measured by the TIG-Indicator introduced in the beginning of section 3 never reached a level above 092 (see Figure 2)

The least informational gain was observed for Bulgaria (no gain) and France Germany and Ireland for which the gain ranged below 03 points On reason is the aggregate representation of agriculture forestry and fishery in the regional branch accounts This is the case for 12 Member States (see Table 34) As a disaggregation of these branches is crucial for this project the availability of other indicators that could permit a split has been evaluated and summarized in Table 34

Red Splitting of A_B not possible based on regional data

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

In general it is assumed that the aggregate figures on agriculture and forestry (A) can be split based on agricultural data from either EAA (for d1 and b1g) or CAPRI data (for b1g) If the datasets are broadly consistent forestry can be calculated as a non-negative residual Procedures for negative residual values will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis Splitting aggregate values for agriculture forestry and fishery (A_B) requires at least one indicator for either forestry or fishery in addition to the EAACAPRI figures Table 34 shows the availability of forestry area data from Eurostat (black) or national statistical organisations (blue) Using these figures to derive average national employment and gross value-added coefficients per hectare of forestry area would supply the needed information but is likely to yield negative values for fishery if calculated residually Again the procedures will have to be developed on a case-by-case basis The most critical Member State in terms of data availability is Bulgaria for which no additional datasets could be found

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

59

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

equiv6_14614 AbG

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

[ ]sum =19

6_14614

bbG

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

[ ]sum =minus19

6_14614 1

bbG

63

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

equivARARbG _14

14

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

Adding up this intermediate matrix for each column shows the number of usable entries corresponding to the Eurostat A6 classification In the given example the regional dataset provides only 2 data-points for A2B instead of the 3 entries that would result from mapping a complete b14 dataset into the A6 categories

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

4 Multi-country IOT Projects

Numerous research projects have developed regional IOT-based models on a regional scale for single Member States as discussed in the sections on Finland Hungary Italy Poland or Romania The following sections provide an overview on three projects on multi-country regional CGEs or other IOT-based models

41 IASONWithin the FP5 project IASON (Integrated Appraisal of Spatial economic and Network effects of transport investments and policies project site httpwwwiasonprojecteudefaulthtm) a very comprehensive database for altogether 1342 NUTS3 regions in EU Member States and other European Countries was developed for the base year 1997 (Broumlcker et al 2002) The database was built on national IOTs and miscellaneous regional datasets featuring the 6 NACE Rev 11 branch aggregates as used in the Eurostat regional branch accounts discussed in section 231 Although the project documentation appears to be a valuable source for data collection and compilation methods the database as such is outdated and too coarse for the purposes of the RegEU SAMs project The IOTs developed in the course of the IASON project cannot be used as control totals (outdated and estimated) nor as benchmark for estimation procedures as they are themselves estimated nor to construct a-priori information for branches missing in the regional accounts (too coarse)

42 DREAMThe dream model as discussed in Jean and Laborde (2004) is a regional CGE model operating on NUTS1 scale for EU25 with 1997 as base year It is mainly built on national IOTs from the GTAP database the regional breakdown was carried out by using the REGIO database from Eurostat and supplementary information The breakdown of branches is in general not compatible with the requirements of the RegEU SAMs database (Table 35)It could be possible that the DREAM database has meanwhile been updated to a more recent year but the branch breakdown and the fact that it is an estimated database limits severely the potential use for the RegEU SAMs database

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

Consider now the case of an obtained regional dataset that provides information for branches in a specific regional format (AR) The correspondence between the regional and RegEU SAMs classification may be represented also in the form of an aggregator matrix G14_AR

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR

To compare the gain of usable information obtained from this regional dataset with the information provide by Eurostat one has to re-arrange the dataset into the Eurostat A6 classification This is here done by first multiplying the d-values with the aggregator matrix G14_6 that combines RegEU SAMs target branches with the A6 classification

The Regional Economy Environment Input Output Model (REEIO httpwwwscpnetorgukreeiohtml) is a decision support tool used to assess the environmental implications of production within a region REEIO links economic activity in 42 industrial branches (most relevant for RegEU SAMs Agriculture etc A01A02B05 Food Drink amp Tob da15da16 Manuf Fuels df23) to environmental components The Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP httpwwwscpnetorgukreaphtml) is designed for analyses of environmental pressures associated with consumption within aregion It can operate at regional and national levels The production side of the economy is broken down according to the ldquoUK Standard Industrial Classification of Economic Activitiesrdquo into 123 sectors in the UK which are compatible with the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC92) and NACE Rev 1 REAP was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute(httpsei-internationalorg) REEIO by Cambridge Econometrics (httpwwwcameconcomHomeaspx) The two models are designed as complementary asREAP models the impact of regional consumption and REEIO models the impacts of economic production

44 REAPBALKThe European Commissionrsquos DG Research funded from October 2001 onwards a project named ldquoRural Employment and Agricultural Perspective in the Balkan Applicant Countriesrdquo (REAPBALK Project ID QLRT-2000-01608) The purpose of this project was to analyse the medium-term agricultural and employment perspectives in selected rural areas of four Balkan countries - Bulgaria Croatia Romania and Slovenia The Greece was also included in the study to provide grounds for suggesting the likely path of employment development post-accession I-O tables have been constructed for each region based on existing regional tables or where these did not exist on estimated regional I-O tables derived from the national ones(httpeceuropaeuresearchagricultureprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)The deliverables of this project are listed on an (apparently outdated) internet site as follows

1)Regional Overview on Selection Criteria

2)Report on the Rural Case Study Bulgaria

3)Report on the Rural Case Study Romania

4)Report on the Rural Case Study Slovenia

5)Report on the Rural Case Study Croatia

6)Report on the Rural Case Study Greece Regional I-O tables provided detailed information about the regional economic structure (deliverables 7-9)

7)Comparative Development of Rural Economy and Employment in the Balkan Applicant Countries

8)Input-Output Model Description and ReapBalk Common I-O Model

9)Regional Input-Output Tables(httpeceuropaeuresearchquality-of-lifeka5enprojectsqlrt_2000_01608_enhtm)

As this project was fully funded by DG Research it is possible that IPTS may be granted access to the database During the CAPRI-RD meeting from 2503 to 26032010 in Istanbul it was possible to talk with a former REAPBALK project partner who was asked about availability content and

structure of the produced regional IOTs Most importantly it was stated that the regional IOTs do not have full coverage of all NUTS II regions in the respective countries Instead IOTs for single regions were produced which would allow at least in the case of Slovenia (2 NUTS II regions) to derive the other regionrsquos IOT residually It could not be made clear whether the regional IOTs for the other countries were structured in the same way However it was agreed that a detailed list of required datasets will be sent to the former REAPBALK partners to evaluate the possibilities for data exchange

45 ESPONThe ESPON 2013 Programme (European Observation Network for Territorial Development and Cohesion) offers on its homepage access to a database that provides regional statistics on various scales (httpwwwesponeumainMenu_ScientificToolsMenu_ESPON2013Database) This database is compiled of datasets from Eurostat and ESPON projects covering the entire European Union plus Switzerland Norway Iceland and Liechtenstein Free access to the ESPON 2013 Database is granted upon acceptance of the pre-defined terms and conditions of use which are not indicated further on the homepage The database is announced to be available form April 2010 but by 15052010 no possibilities to access the database was provided An inventory (downloaded from an older version of the homepage) indicated that data relevant for the RegEU SAMs project do not exceed the coverage of the Eurostat datasets Once access to the database is published a more detailed investigation will be carried out

5 Outlook to the Next Project Phase

In the course of compiling this inventory the availability of relevant datasets on regional and national scale from Eurostat and the national statistical organisations (NSO) was screened Numerous individuals research institutions and the contents of research projects have been checked Altogether it became clear that (mostly) survey-based regional IOTs are only available for 13 NUTS II regions in Spain and potentially for Scotland and the Border Midland and Western region of Ireland Estimated regional IOTs are potentially available for a larger number of countries like Finland Poland (Toumlrmauml and Zawalinska 2007) Balkan countries (REAPBALK) Austria (Fritz et al 2003) and Italy In most cases regional branch accounts from the NSOs provided more detailed information for employment and gross value-added than the comparable Eurostat datasets with the exception of Bulgaria for which no informational gain could be achievedTo compile the RegEU SAMs database is to convert all the obtained regional data files into a common format (gdx RegEU SAMs target classifications) Methodologically it became clear that the construction of a full set of a-priory SAMs will have to be based on national SAM coefficients and regional employment and value-added data Consequently the next step is the compilation and consolidation of a full set of these indicators for all 271 NUTS II regions based on the obtained data In a next stage the regional prior SAMs will be derived The performance of the applied methods will be tested against the survey-based IOTs for the Spanish regions and Scotland Concerning the estimation of inter-regional trade flows the performance of the estimation methods can also be tested against a dataset for Italy

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

7 Annex 1 Example for the Computation of TIG

The following example is meant to illustrate the calculation of the informational gain indicator (TIG) as introduced in the beginning of section 3 It does not refer to any particular classification of branches in the regional account datasetsThe target classification for the RegEU SAMs database features 14 economic branches (b14) whereas the regional datasets available from Eurostat provide only information for 6 branch aggregates The mapping between these branches may be presented in the from of an aggregator matrix G14_6 that indicates which items in the b10-framwork have to added up to the corresponding entries in the A6 classification

Adding-up the row-dimension of this aggregator matrix yields the number of elements of b14in A6

As the Eurostat datasets are available for all NUTS II regions in this A6 classification it would be only necessary to collect the number of elements of b14 in A6 less one for each A6 category For example in the case of the category A2B it would be sufficient to collect 2 data-points for the corresponding elements in b14 (AGR FOR or OPP) as it will be possible to calculate the remaining value residually Therefore it would be sufficient to collect only 13 data-points (10-6) provided that they can be mapped accordingly into the b14 classification The needed data-points are therefore

This regional classification may provide aggregate figures in the case of branch A which corresponds with the branches AGR and FOR in the b14 format In other cases AR is more detailed than required as the data on CA and CB would anyway be added to the category C in the b14 format Counting the number of usable entries in the AR classification with respect to b14 is expressed as a function δ of the row-sum of G14_AR
