Comments/caveats

Sectors in NACE rev.2: 

Primary sector = branch A (agriculture, forestry and fishing); 

Secondary sector = branches B-E + F (industry + construction); 

Tertiary sector = branches G-I + J + K + L + M-N + O-Q + R-U.

The distribution of GVA by type of region has been calculated using the Commission's urban-rural typology, which classifies NUTS 3 regions into predominantly rural, intermediate and predominantly urban.
