Commission Report 2002 (Slovakia)
Net migration rate. Crude rate of net migration (recalculated by EUROSTAT)
for year X, is: population (X+1) - population (X) - Deaths (X) + Births (X).
This assumes that any change in population not attributable to births and
deaths is attributable to migration. This indicator includes therefore also
administrative corrections (and projection errors if the total population is
based on estimates and the births and deaths on registers). Figures are in
this case more consistent. Further, most of the difference between the Crude
rate of net migration provided by a country and the one calculated by
Eurostat is caused by an under reporting or delay in reporting of
migration.
