The subdimension ‘geographical area‘ should include the following elements (territorial units), following the European common classification of territorial units for statistics (NUTS) set out in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1059/200317:

6.3.a.1. Member State (NUTS level 1 territorial unit¹⁸ );

6.3.a.2. region of a Member State (NUTS level 2 territorial unit); and

6.3.a.3. subregion or city of the previous territorial units (NUTS level 3 territorial unit).

¹⁸ In the cases of larger Member States, NUTS 1 refers not to the whole Member State but to regions of it. Therefore, this level is kept as an element although for some Member States this level will not be relevant.
