4. CONCLUSION
The Commission has exercised its delegated powers correctly and invites the European Parliament and the Council to take note of this report.
The Commission considers that it should continue to have delegated powers pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2019/1700. In order to ensure that Regulation (EU) 2019/1700 is correctly implemented, further delegated acts are in the process of adoption or will need to be adopted:
- to further specify the number and title of the variables for all domains covered by Regulation (EU) 2019/1700 (labour force, income and living conditions, health, education and training, use of information and communication technologies, time use and consumption), including the variables of the ad hoc subjects to be collected in the labour force and income and living conditions domains.
Furthermore, the Commission may need to adopt other delegated acts in the future to reflect progress in statistical methodologies and ensure that EU statistics relating to persons and households, based on data at individual level collected from samples remain reliable, exhaustive and comparable as well as fulfil policy needs.
