Note: Not all data from participating Member States is releasable, therefore the aggregate figure will not always equal the totality of some of the data serials. Data has been rounded meaning some serials will not always equal aggregate figures at the EU level. Please note that Bulgaria and Romania became participating EDA Member States in 2007. There are no data available for the year 2005 for these two countries.
