Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In case where the own produced food items are also included in code 01 we need to abstract from OWNP
=FOODEXP+CATSER+SCHRST

COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
Since the period over which the expenditure data are collected is not identified in the data file, a check on average expenses on food, non food and total expenditure was done and compared to the figures provided by DOS. It was found that amounts provided are already annualized.

Items aggregated under each expenditure type are identified in "Expenditure Aggregates" file.
