[01] Almunia comments on Greek GDP revision
European Union Economic Affairs Commissioner Joaqin Almunia, speaking
on Monday after the end of a Eurogroup session, said that the European
Statistical Service is awaiting all the data by the National
Statistical Service of Greece regarding the revision of Greece's GDP
upwards.
The Spanish EU Commissioner said that from the moment that necessary
data will reach Luxembourg, the Commission's statistical service will
be in a position to proceed with its verification.
The EU's Council of Economy Ministers will then in turn decide on the
issue of Greece exiting from an excessive deficit status, Almunia said.
He clarified, however, that this issue was not among the issues
examined by the Eurogroup on Monday.
