Notes: Values in real Euros deflated by HICP ; between and within contributions to total variance are based on unweighted averages by zone, while the Theil
index is based on weighted averages (including the EU-28 weighted average). Missing data for MT, some missing values in the beginning of the period were kept
constant for the calculation of dispersion and averages: LU (1996-2005), BG, HR, IE (1996-01), EL, ES, RO (1996-99).
