Errata:

• Vote intention question D.4 is not documented in the basic bilingual questionnaires.

• Starting with Eurobarometer 34 and up to survey 61, NUTS 1 level data (REGION II) for the NETHERLANDS are not (re-)coded
  in accordance with the official EUROSTAT nomenclature of territorial unit statistics. The NUTS 2 level province ZEELAND should be
  coded as belonging to NUTS 1 region (landsdel) WEST instead of SOUTH Netherlands. (GESIS-ZA editions will be corrected from EB 53 onwards, November 11, 2005)
