The ESSnet on Consistency is an important part of the MEETS project aiming for the modernisation of European Business and Trade Statistics. This ESSnet has made an inventory of inconsistencies in several domains of business and trade-related statistics in all Member States and EFTA countries regarding target population, frames, reference period, classifications and their application (Work package 2) and regarding characteristics and definitions (Work package 3). Based on evaluation criteria major inconsistencies have been identified. At this workshop the main results as well as initial ideas on how to minimize the detected inconsistencies shall be presented and discussed with experts from the Member States and EFTA countries.
