(-1) In Point 1.1, the first paragraph is replaced by the following: “The endorsement of the Europe 2020 strategy by the European Council of June 2010 has shaped to a large extent the strategic agenda for the European Union and national policies in the years ahead. That agenda establishes a number of headline targets and flagship initiatives for which statistical indicators have to be delivered by the ESS in a number of areas (i.e. improving the conditions for innovation, research and development, promoting employment, meeting Union climate change and energy objectives, resource efficiency, improving education levels, including learning mobility, active and healthy ageing, and promoting social inclusion through the reduction of poverty).” with a focus on vulnerable groups).” Or. en (http://eur- lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:L:2013:039:0012:0029:EN:PDF)

(4) In the context of Better Regulation, Union policies should increasingly be designed and monitored on the basis of solidreliable evidence with solid statistical basis. European statistics have a distinct role to play in that respect and can make a real difference, especially in policy areas where responsiveness is key for policies to be successful.

(5) Better statistics are therefore crucial to achieving better results and contributing to a more and better Europe, and greater efforts should be made to boost investments in official statistics at both European and national levels. This should provide guidance in priority policy areas and for capacity-building, in addition to current guidance and ongoing re- prioritisation. More specifically, action should be taken to tackle the most urgent statistical gaps, increase timeliness, monitor the Stability and Growth Pact and support political priorities and economic policy coordination through the European Semester and the country specific recommendations. The Commission (Eurostat) should also provide new population projections in close cooperation with the national statistical institutes to update the analysis of the economic and budgetary implications of population ageing and the economic impact of the rising economic inequalities.

(6) Experimental ecosystem accounts and climate-change statistics, including those relevant to climate-change adaptation and ‘footprints’, should be further developed, particularly in support of the implementation of the 2015 Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The European Energy Union and the 2030 framework for climate and energy, which aims to make the Union’s economy and energy system more competitive, efficient, secure and sustainable, will require new statistics on energy consumption, energy efficiency, renewable energies, energy dependence and security of supply.
