"GDP is the most effective instrument for measuring macro-economic activity, while also serving as an indirect indicator of social development and progress. However, it cannot provide information about all the areas which are the subject of political debates, such as the environment and social inclusion.
This indicator underpins many of the European Union’s policy decisions and instruments. I think that we need to step up our efforts to provide indicators which will meet the needs of all citizens. They specifically need to measure in a sustainable manner the progress made in achieving economic, social and environmental objectives. In conclusion, future European policies need to be based on complete, up-to-date data, covering all the vital aspects."@en1
