  1. Workshop on International ClassificationsKazakhstan 19-21 March 2013, Chisinau, Moldova

  2. What classification of activities and products you are currently using • Developed on the basis of NACE rev. 2: • National Common Classification of Economic Activity of the Republic of Kazakhstan (NCEA) at the 4-digits level, • Departmental Nomenclature of Economic Activities (NCEA 5-digits) - an enhanced version of NACE rev.2 at the 5-digits level • Developed on the base of CPA 2008: • national classification of products by economic activity of the Republic of Kazakhstan (CPA) at the 6-digits level, • departmental statistical classification of products by sectors of agriculture, industry, construction, services at the 9-digits level • Developed on the basis of COICOP an enhanced version at the 8-digits level • Nomenclature of commodity items to COICOP

  3. Currently occurring revisions • The State Standard Organisation of the Republic of Kazakhstan approved a new version of the NCEA (NACE rev. 2) in 2007 and the new version of CPEA (CPA 2008) in 2008 • New versions of the NCEA and CPEA have been used in statistical production as of 1 January 2009 • In 2012, as part of implementation of the SNA 2008 were developed and approved the following classifications : • Classification of financial assets • Classification of nonfinancial assets • Classification of functions of the Government • Classification of the purposes of non-profit institutions serving households, etc.

  4. Status of implementation • In 2009, on the basis of NACE rev. 2, CPA 2008 developed in different fields of statistics (activities at the 5-digit level, products – at 9-digits) • In 2009, data collection forms for year 2010 were changed to take into account the new versions of classifications • Since 1 January 2010, statistical data is collected in sectoral statistics, structural statistics and national accounts using new versions of NCEA and CPA • Since 1 January 2010, statistical information published is based on the new versions of NACE and CPA • Time series for 1998-2009 was recalculated in 2011-2012, recalculation of time series for 1990-1997 is planned for 2013

  5. Specific questions raised in connection with the classification by activities • Clarifications on the differences of classes 64.20 "Activities of holding companies" and 70.10 "Activities of head offices“ is needed • The absence of an explanation for each subtype of CPA 2008 classification raises questions while classifying products • For example, the production of alcohol from edible raw material with alcohol concentration over 80% was in the old CPA included in food industry, but the CPA 2008 includes these products in chemical industry (code 20.14.74) • As a result, all factories for the production of  alimentary alcohol were moved from food industry to chemical industry

  6. Time series issues • For how many years do you usually recalculate data back in the new classification, for : • short-term statistics for 1990-2009 • Which methods do you use to calculate the previous years in the new classification, for: • Business registers: a double-coding (both old and new codes) based on conversion tables and surveys • In structural business statistics, short-term statistics and national accounts recalculation is done based on micro-data or conversion on the basis of coefficients

  7. Other issues • The absence of Russian translations of the majority of international classifications complicates introduction of classifications
