# Commission Decision of 4 March 2005 implementing Council Directive 95/64/EC on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods and passengers by sea and amending Annexes thereto (notified under document number C(2005) 463) (Text with EEA relevance) (2005/366/EC), Annex VI Extent: E+W+S+N.I. ‘ANNEX VIII STRUCTURE FOR STATISTICAL DATA SETS The data sets specified in this Annex define the periodicity for the maritime transport statistics required by the Community. Each data set defines a cross classification of a limited set of dimensions at different levels of the nomenclatures, aggregated across all other dimensions, for which statistics of good quality are required. The conditions for collecting data set B1 will be decided by the Council on a proposal from the Commission in the light of the results of the pilot study during a three-year transitional period as defined in Article 10 of this Directive. SUMMARY AND DETAILED STATISTICS The data sets to be provided for selected ports for goods and passengers are A1, A2, B1, C1, D1, E1, F1 and/or F2. The data sets to be provided for selected ports for goods but not for passengers are A1, A2, A3, B1, C1, E1, F1 and/or F2. The data sets to be provided for selected ports for passengers but not for goods are A3, D1, F1 and/or F2. The data set to be provided for selected ports and for ports which are not selected (for neither goods nor passengers) is A3.
