Category: SNA
The general government sector consists mainly of central, state and local government units together with social security funds imposed and controlled by those units. In addition, it includes NPIs engaged in non-market production that are controlled by government units or social security funds (SNA 2008, § 4.30). The general government sector consists of the totality of institutional units, which, in addition to fulfilling their political responsibilities and their role of economic regulation, produce principally non-market services (possibly goods) for individual or collective consumption and redistribute income and wealth (SNA 1993, § 2.20). http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/SNA2008.pdf United Nations,
