Of course the statistics are not devised to be some kind of European Book of Records, but are a research tool made available to governments, politicians, NGOs, journalists for free, and to the general public for EUR 30. ‘The yearbook is a window on our statistics and an invitation for people to look in more detail at what we have to offer,’ said Tim Allen in the Eurostat Press Office. ‘The vast majority of our data is available free on our website,’ http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat
