Information made available after publication
of the report required that the sampling weights for Belgium (Flemish)
be recomputed. The adjusted sampling weights resulted in slightly
but not significantly different calculations for Belgium (Flemish)
in the following exhibits: Exhibit 1.6, page 43; Exhibit 4.1, page
120; Exhibit 4.2, page 123; Exhibit 4.4, page 125; Exhibit 4.5, page
128; Exhibit 4.7, page 131; Exhibit 4.8, pages 134 and 136; Exhibit
4.10, pages 144 and 146; Exhibit 6.6, page 215; Exhibit 7.1, page

page 276; Exhibit D.1, page 386; Exhibit D.2, page 387. This also
resulted in slightly but not significantly different international
averages in Exhibit 4.2 and Exhibit 6.6. |
