It is a matter of principle not to comment on national legal procedures, European Commission spokesman Margaritis Schinas said on Thursday.
Regarding the credibility of the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT) in the period 2010-2015, he said that the Commission has clearly expressed its position in a letter sent in August 2016.
Schinas expressed the Commission’s belief that the system with which the statistical service now operates as a follow-up to the “fundamental changes in legislation” and the “necessary guarantees” introduced to overcome any problems that existed in the past with the ELSTAT data is “efficient.”
