(3)Demographic sources (such as the labour force survey, population censuses) are an efficient means of validating the employment underlying GDP estimates (pertinent to GDP compilations by the production and income approaches) or of making adjustments to GDP for non-observed production and income. The labour force survey has been conducted in a consistent manner in all Member States based on Regulation (EU) 2019/1700 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote and on Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2240note. Business statistics sources, such as structural business statistics and statistical business registers, used to compile GDP in all Member States comply with Regulation (EU) 2019/2152 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote (the ‘EBS Regulation’) and with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1197note.
