NUTS - Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics classification

Description

The NUTS classification (Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) is a hierarchical system for dividing up the economic territory of the EU for the purpose of: a) The collection, development and harmonisation of European regional statistics; b) Socio-economic analyses of the regions; c) Framing of EU regional policies (e.g. cohesion policy). The system is based on population thresholds and favours administrative division. The legal acts behind started with Commission Regulation (EC) No 1059/2003 which specify stability of the classification for at least three years.
