Environmental Protection Expenditure and Revenues in the EU, EFTA and candidate countries 2001-2006
This publication deals with environmental protection expenditure and revenues in the EU, EFTA and candidate countries for the period 2001-2006. The data on environmental protection expenditure (EPE) show the efforts being made to prevent, reduce and eliminate pollution resulting from the production or consumption of goods and services. The analysis covers three economic sectors (public sector, industry sector, specialised producers) and six economic variables (EPE, investments for environmental protection, pollution treatment investments, pollution prevention investments, current expenditure for environmental protection and subsidies/transfers given for environmental protection activities). Some data on specialised producers and public sector's revenues for sold environmental protection services are also presented.
