(352) 43 01-1 — website http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat Eurostat is the Statistical Office of the European Communities. Its mission is to pro- vide the European Union with high-quality statistical information. For that purpose, it gathers and analyses figures from the national statistical offices across Europe and provides comparable and harmonised data for the European Union to use in the defi- nition, implementation and analysis of Community policies. Its statistical products and services are also of great value to Europe’s business community, professional organisations, academics, librarians, NGOs, the media and citizens. Eurostat's publications programme consists of several collections: • News releases provide recent information on the Euro-Indicators and on social, economic, regional, agricultural or environmental topics. • Statistical books are larger A4 publications with statistical data and analysis. • Pocketbooks are free of charge publications aiming to give users a set of basic fig- ures on a specific topic. • Statistics in focus provides updated summaries of the main results of surveys, stud- ies and statistical analysis. • Data in focus present the most recent statistics with methodological notes. • Methodologies and working papers are technical publications for statistical experts working in a particular field. Eurostat publications can be ordered via the EU Bookshop at http://bookshop. europa.eu. All publications are also downloadable free of charge in PDF format from the Eurostat website http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat. Furthermore, Eurostat’s databases are freely available there, as are tables with the most frequently used and demanded short- and long-term indicators. Eurostat has set up with the members of the ‘European statistical system’ (ESS) a network of user support centres which exist in nearly all Member States as well as in some EFTA countries. Their mission is to provide help and guidance to Internet users of European statistical data. Contact details for this support network can be found on Eurostat Internet site. Foreword to the 2009 edition The Statistical Requirements Compendium is a well-established reference document for the acquis communautaire in statistics. The Compendium is a tool for producers of official statistics, which summarises the key reference information for European statistical production. Eurostat updates this Compendium every year to take into account new legislation and other developments relevant for European official statistics. In April 2009, the new Statistical Law (Regulation no 223/2009 of the European Parliament and the Council of 11 March 2009 on European statistics) entered into force. The new Regulation highlights different aspects of statistical production, development, dissemination and cooperation in the framework of the European Statistical System (ESS). The structure of the 2009 edition of the Compendium generally follows the annual Statistical Work Programme of the Commission for 2009 which was adopted on the basis of the multiannual Community Statistical Programme 2008 to 2012 (Decision no 1578/2007 of the European Parliament and the Council of 11 December 2007). For each theme and module that is relevant for European official statistics producers, the 2009 edition of the Compendium provides: - a description and the key priorities for 2009 of the statistical theme, - the relevant legal acts with the Official Journal reference and other documents relevant for compilation of statistics such as agreements between Eurostat and Member States, - the data requirements – i.e. the data sets to be provided by European statistics producers to Eurostat, - methodological information, - information on international cooperation. The electronic version of this Compendium can be downloaded from the Eurostat website at http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu.

This publication was produced by Eurostat unit D-1 – Statistical cooperation with European and Mediterranean countries, with the assistance of Mr Ilie Dinu, in close cooperation with all subject matter units of Eurostat. The help and support of the subject matter units was indispensable for the compilation of this publication.

  • Young People & Brexit
    YOUNG PEOPLE & BREXIT by Flavia Williams, Dominic Brind, and Thomas Peto Published by Our Future, Our Choice Our Future, Our Choice is a youth movement campaigning for a People’s Vote on the final Brexit deal. Our Future, Our Choice Millbank Tower, Millbank, Westminster, London SW1P 4QP www.ofoc.co.uk The authors would like to extend their thanks to all those who have helped with this report. As well as those who would prefer not to be named, we would like to thank Dr. Manmit Bhambra for her kind advice and guidance, and the policy team at Open Britain. !2 CONTENTS Foreword 4 The RT Hon Sir John Major KG CH .……………………………………………….………………………………………………………..

Our Future, Our Choice sets out with great clarity the implications for young people, and I commend it warmly. Brexit has divided the component parts of the UK, placing England and Wales (as “Leavers”), in opposition to Scotland and Northern Ireland. It has divided our mainstream political parties; business and commerce; communities; friends — and even families. In many cases, these scars run deep. People who voted for Brexit did so with high hopes — most of which will be unrealised. We were told that we would keep the advantages of the Single Market.

  • Environmental Education – the Path to Sustainable Development Contents
    Environmental Education – the path to Sustainable Development Contents Promoting a sense of responsibility through environmental education Page 05 The United Nations has designated the period 2005 to 2014 as the decade of “Education for Sustainable Development”. The objective is to integrate the concept of sustainable develop- ment in education processes around the world. Environmental education is an integral aspect of this concept. It is a process of action-orient- ed, political learning. The European Green Dot programme is making a significant con- tribution to making people promote sustain- able development. Green Dot – promoting environmental awareness and motivating people Page 12 The Green Dot and partner organisations have contributed in creating routine attitudes, values and actions, and establishing a Euro- pean platform for environmental awareness. They promote active citizenship through diverse local, regional and national education pro- grammes for the entire education chain. Many of the activities are realised in partnership programmes with manufacturing and retail enterprises, authorities and recycling companies. 02 03 Environmental education as a means of promoting European integration Page 22 No other political objective is more dependent on successful cooperation than sustainability. The Green Dot environmental education pro- gramme’s internationally networked projects are therefore focused towards European in- tegration. Young people in various countries learn to share responsibilities as well as prac- tise democracy by working on solutions to- gether as a group. Two prominent examples are the 1st European Youth Eco-Parliament and the Baltic Sea Project. Sustainability needs networked thinking and action Page 29 Global environmental issues, such as the greenhouse effect, the decimation of bio- logical diversity and the consumption of finite resources can only be solved on the basis of more intensive international cooper- ation.

  • Food and Health in Europe: Europe: in Health and Food WHO Regional Publications
    Food and health in Europe: Food and health WHO Regional Publications European Series, No. 96 a new basis for action Food and health in Europe: a new basis for action 96 The World Health Organization was established in 1948 as a specialized agency of the United Nations serving as the directing and coordinating authority for international health matters and public health. One of WHO’s constitutional functions is to provide objective and reliable information and advice in the field of human health, a responsibility that it fulfils in part through its publications programmes. Through its publications, the Organization seeks to support national health strategies and address the most pressing public health concerns. The WHO Regional Office for Europe is one of six regional offices throughout the world, each with its own programme geared to the particular health problems of the countries it serves. The European Region embraces some 870 million people living in an area stretching from Greenland in the north and the Mediterranean in the south to the Pacific shores of the Russian Federation. The European programme of WHO therefore concentrates both on the problems associated with industrial and post-industrial society and on those faced by the emerging democracies of central and eastern Europe and the former USSR. To ensure the widest possible availability of authoritative information and guidance on health matters, WHO secures broad international distribution of its publications and encourages their translation and adaptation. By helping to promote and protect health and prevent and control disease, WHO’s books contribute to achieving the Organization’s principal objective – the attainment by all people of the highest possible level of health.

  • An Open Letter to CUSU and All Cambridge Students Time Has Run
    An Open Letter to CUSU and all Cambridge Students Time has run out. The United Kingdom is staring down the barrel of a ‘no deal’ Brexit as the contradictions that should have been evident from the start transform into a constitutional crisis. Theresa May’s Chequers deal is unworkable. Any deal that could plausibly be agreed between May and Brussels will be rejected by the hard-line Brexiters in the Conservative party. A border in the Irish Sea is unacceptable to the DUP. A border on the Irish mainland is unacceptable to the UK and EU governments. And, despite what Jacob Rees-Mogg says, having no border at all is impossible if we wish to leave the Customs Union and Single Market. The much-rumoured technological solution does not exist. There is not a majority for any individual kind of Brexit deal. The dangerous prospect of a No Deal Brexit is now the most likely outcome. Young people cared about this issue in 2016 – now is the time to act. CUSU must join the dozens of unions around the country, including their own international committee, who have endorsed a People’s Vote. Last year, CUSU promised that this issue would be determined after a consultation of the student body. A consultation has not yet been forthcoming, so CUSU must act immediately through the elected representatives of college JCRs, given the urgency of the ​ ​ situation. We understand that CUSU is concerned about student consultation – we believe that the best form of consultation available is to give the 1.5 million young people who have turned 18 since June 2016 a say in their future.
