10/11/2006 | Armenia | The National Statistical Service of the Republic of Armenia agrees with the most recent AEG recommendations. |
10/10/2006 | Sweden | Further clarification/analysis required |
9/29/2006 | Bank of Korea | We agree to the recommendations in general. It is, however, necessary to indicate more concrete and detailed accounting criterions, which are the way the government and the private units write down transactions during the contract period; the construction period, the end of construction, the operation period and the end of the contract. |
9/28/2006 | New Zealand | In New Zealand we have little experience with these types of arrangements and have no comment. |
9/15/2006 | United Kingdom | PPPs and BOOT schemes have been in use in many countries for over 15 years - that is before SNA93 was finalised - and their number and scale is often large. Thus it would have been highly desirable to give firm guidance in this revision. However, we recognise the practical difficulties of doing so especially while relevant IPSASs are still under discussion as these will partly deteluiine the information available to compile the national accounts. The recommendation is thus in our view a second best to be used if nothing better is available in time. We consider this issue large and important enough to merit a late set of recommendations if the timetable and production process can accommodate it. |
9/15/2006 | Latvia | After deep discussions and expert consultations we basically support the
1993 SNA Update Issues. |

7/31/2006 | Israel | We find the recommendations of the AEG based on John Pitzer’s work on this issue extremely useful, and hope they will be introduced in statistical frameworks even before the publication of SNA rev. 1. The annex proposed will be important, but it should be general enough to remain relevant in coming years, taking into account that new and innovative forms of public-private partnerships could appear in the future. |
7/31/2006 | Macao SAR | Statistics and Census Service of Macao SAR agrees to the AEG recommendations and has no further comments. |
7/31/2006 | Bosnia and Herzegovina | We agree with AEG recommendations on the update of the 1993 SNA and do not have any further comments. |

7/27/2006 | Egypt | The suggested annex should include extensive elaboration to distinguish between the economic owner and the legal owner of the assets in question. More specific set of guidelines to be mentioned in the revised SNA. |
7/25/2006 | Central Bank of Costa Rica | We very much welcome the recommendations of the AEG on this issue. Our experience has shown us the urgent need to have guidance on this matter. We truly hope the annex proposed to be included on the updated SNA will be as extensive as needed to solve the most common questions of national accounts compilers, although we acknowledge that there is an ample diversity of arrangements under these types of contracts. |
7/25/2006 | Bank of Italy | We broadly support the conclusions. |
7/24/2006 | National Bank of the Republic of Azerbaijan | We have analyzed the “Comment on the recommendations of the most recent Advisory Expert Group on National Accounts (AEG) meeting (January 30 – February 8, 2006) in Frankfurt” within the scope of our responsibilities and I am pleased to inform you that we are in agreement with the AEG recommendations. |
7/12/2006 | Finland | We agree with the AEG outcomes. We think at the moment existing criteria mentioned in the Eurostat Manual on government deficit and debt are too narrow and there should be more criteria. |
7/10/2006 | Denmark | Agreement We believe it would be useful to rename the Public Private Partnerships (PPP). It is confusing the have to 2 important concepts with the same abbreviation PPP; Public Private Partnerships and Purchasing Power Parities. We believe the Editor should be entrusted to find another suitable name to the public private partnerships. |
11/28/2005 | Poland | In the scope of propositions regarding the BOOT schemes we are not able to express our opinion since this phenomenon is a new one in Poland and we do not have any experiences in this area. The Act on Public – Private Partnership dated 28 July 2005 is first law regulation in this area. At the moment executive acts to it are being elaborated. |
5/6/2005 | Vietnam | We agree with the recommendations of the AEG in principle but we find It is difficult to collect information in practice. |
