IPA 2009 Multi-beneficiary StatisticalCooperation Programme3.3.3.3 The procedure <strong>for</strong> estimations <strong>of</strong> indicatorsBy analyzing in more detail the expenditure data from government budget comingfrom the Ministry <strong>of</strong> Finances we can see an enormous effect <strong>of</strong> data redundancyfrom some <strong>of</strong> the fields. Data redundancy is the effect <strong>of</strong> repetition <strong>of</strong> data indatabase. The reason we need to pay attention to this case is to avoid having adatabase overpopulated with data that repeat itself thous<strong>and</strong>s <strong>of</strong> times. This process isbasically an IT process that involves the process <strong>of</strong> normalization <strong>of</strong> the database(reconstructing the database in a more dynamic <strong>and</strong> more effective way). For theNational Account purpose a relatively analytic database is established <strong>for</strong> furtherimprovement <strong>and</strong> implementation to the data source.The first step taken is by dividing the structure into a more analytic one. First astructure <strong>of</strong> the institution is built. A single institution is part <strong>of</strong> the same district, <strong>and</strong>is local or not, etc in the same way <strong>for</strong> each record. Only one district <strong>and</strong> one NACEcode group might be allocated to one single institution, but some institutions mayhave more than one NACE code <strong>and</strong> <strong>for</strong> this reason the institutions are grouped inthree institutional groups.- only one activity;- two or more activities;- non governmental institutionsThe institution into the fist group follows only one activity <strong>and</strong> the futureclassification using NACE is from the data <strong>of</strong> NACE group. For example: “MotherTheresa" University Hospital Center has as its main activity health care, section N <strong>of</strong>NACE Rev 1.1. All the expenditure made by this institution is targeted at theimprovement <strong>of</strong> the health care process. This institution doesn’t have any othersecond activity (not a relevant one) <strong>and</strong> its output is mainly non-market oriented. Thegeneral government institutions are good cases <strong>of</strong> this group, because they have onlyone main activity <strong>and</strong> they firmly stick to it.The second group is made by institutions the main activities <strong>of</strong> which are different.All these institutions have a general government activity (NACE 75.11), but if welook into more detail at the expenditure, we can see that the kinds <strong>of</strong> activities aremore than one. We keep these data separated because they need a further study <strong>and</strong> afurther improvement. This group mainly includes local institutions likemunicipalities etc.The third group covers all non government institutions that are part <strong>of</strong> the data fromthe Ministry <strong>of</strong> Finances. These can be institutions that are partially owned by thegovernment like Vodafone, AMC, INSIG (telecommunication institution having thegovernment as share holder), other institutions that receive subsidies from thegovernment <strong>and</strong> governmental institution that are open toward market output.
