Answer given by Ms Thyssen on behalf of the Commission (28.5.2015)
The Honourable Member will find the requested information in the annex.

GDP data for reference years 2012 and 2013 are not yet available for NUTS level 2 and 3. Data for these reference years will be based for the first time on the methodology prescribed by Regulation (EU) No 549/2013 of the European Parliament and the Council of 21 May 2013 on the European System of National and Regional Accounts in the European Union and should be available towards the end of May 2015.

A complete time series for all regions cannot be expected before mid-2017 as revising of back data takes time, depending on the data availability by Member State.

EU island regions are defined as NUTS 2 or NUTS 3 regions entirely insular or part of islands without a fixed link (bridge, tunnel) to the mainland.
