Explanation of symbols

Dataset is not available.


This table includes information on the number of local units of
enterprises and institutions (establishments) broken down by the National
Classification of Economic Activity 2008 (NCEA 2008, based on NACE Rev
2.0). Besides the breakdown by NCEA, the number of local units is broken
down by municipality. The regional characteristics are derived from the
municipality in which the local unit is located. The regional totals shown
concern cumulated municipal data. Where changes of municipal boundaries
transect regional boundaries, the municipal classifications concerns the
most recent situation. The municipality of Woerden, for example, was
annexed by the province of Utrecht on 1 January 1989, and is classified
under the province of Utrecht in the Table. The number of local units is
rounded by a multiple of 5. The data refer to the situation on 1 January
of the year of observation.

Data available from: 2006

Status of the figures:
All data recorded in this publication are final data.

Last changes:
Data broken down by NCEA 1993 are transformed into data broken down by
NCEA 2008.

When will new figures be published?
Changes as of 20 April 2012:
This table has been stopped. Two points in the processing of the data have changed:
- the statistical unit has been changed.
- the main economic activity (NCEA 2008) of the local unit has been implemented.
Due to these changes, the figures are no longer comparable to those of the previous years. Therefore a new table has been started from 2007 onwards.
