Article
The ONS assesses bodies and transactions against international rules to decide how they should be treated in the National Accounts. A small team gather and analyse the information required to enable the Economic Statistics Classifications Committee (ESCC) to reach a decision on the appropriate accounting treatment. There is high demand for assessments as well as a considerable volume of ad-hoc requests for advice on policy proposals and other issues. Meanwhile, the team are continuing improvements to products such as the classifications information on the ONS website and the Public Sector Classifications Guide.
This update lists the cases that ONS expects to assess between Quarter 2 (April-June) 2016 and Quarter 1 (January-March 2017). These cases have been prioritised on the basis of the impact they will have on key statistics (an impact of at least £1bn on the government deficit or £10bn on government debt), their importance to public policy, and their priority for Eurostat (the statistical body of the European Union, which oversees member states' compliance with the European System of Accounts and other rules under which the UK statistics are produced). However, this list does not include other cases with smaller impacts which may be assessed in this period.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) assesses bodies and transactions against international rules to decide how they should be treated in the UK National Accounts. A small secretariat team gather and analyse the information required to enable the Economic Statistics Classifications Committee (ESCC) to reach a decision on the appropriate accounting treatment. There is high demand for assessments as well as a considerable volume of ad-hoc requests for advice on policy proposals and other issues. Meanwhile, the secretariat are initiating improvements to products such as the classifications information on our website and the Public Sector Classifications Guide. This update lists the cases that we expect to assess in 2016. These cases have been prioritised on the basis of the impact they will have on main statistics (an impact of at least £1 billion on the government deficit or £10 billion on government debt), their importance to public policy, and their priority for Eurostat (the statistical body of the European Union, which oversees member states' compliance with the European System of Accounts and other rules under which the UK statistics are produced). However, this list does not include other cases with smaller impacts which may be assessed in this period.
