AFAIK, Gibraltar is outside of the EU. Somehow. --12.216.243.109 07:25, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

No - some provisions do not apply (such as the Customs Union) but it is inside and has been since 1973. That is why Spain had to open the border. See Special member state territories and their relations with the EU. --Henrygb 01:10, 8 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

N.U.T.S. → Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics – Page should not have been moved. Mover found full name too hard to search for, but nobody will search for N.U.T.S. NUTS is a disambig page and should suffice. --Nelson Ricardo 22:23, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Has already been done. —Nightstallion (?) 21:35, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LECs and unitarty authorities in Scotland

Trying to make sense of the refs to LECs and unitary authorities in Scotland. I presume LECs means here local enterprise companies, and these often cover areas with very different boundaries to those covered by unitary local government authorities. Laurel Bush 12:13, 25 April 2006 (UTC).

The LECs only apply in the Highlands and Islands Enterprise area, a NUTS II division. Otherwise Highland would have been geographically too big and the other mainland areas too small. --Henrygb 15:55, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Cheers. I believe boundaries of Highlands and Islands LECs were changed recently, but I dont have details. This change means the statistical areas have also changed? Laurel Bush 16:51, 9 June 2006 (UTC).


[edit] EU 15 , EU 25

i propose to merge the data. EU now is EU-25. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 13:19, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NUTS 2 / Names in this column

It's sometimes written in english (this an english article...) and sometimes in the local language. I think that it shouldn't be this way. Need a more homogenic naming.

Maybe both terms could be written (i.e. the translated name in italic or something similar).

Example :

France NUTS2 : regions (régions)

-- Éole

[edit] Candidate countries

Only CH is listed for Switzerland here, not EO39. Has EO39 been deprecated or are both in use? -- Jao (talk) 20:22, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
