Notes: σ refers to the coefficient of variation (based on weighted averages); the share of inter groups variance is based on unweighted averages by zone
(see annex). Some missing data at the beginning of the period were kept constant for the calculation of dispersion: CZ, IE, HR, LV, SK (2001) and UK (2003).
