In Norway, in 2007, a break in series occurs because of a change in compilation methods for health institutions. This affects both the Higher education sector (university hospitals) and Government sector (other hospitals).
In 1995, the survey sample was revised to improve coverage of small firms (10 to 50 employees) and non-manufacturing industries.
As of 1991, personnel in central administration units of higher education are not included, however the cost of such personnel is included in other current R&D expenditure (in line with the Frascati Manual).
In 1987, own funds from Public enterprises were reclassified from funds from Government to the funds from the Business Enterprise sector. As of 1989, R&D performed by PNP institutes has been included in the government sector.
The growth in resources devoted to R&D in 1984 is due to the expansion of the scope of the Business Enterprise sector survey.
Based on new information, the estimate for defence GBARD in 2019 was reduced by about 12% compared with the previous year. The decrease is due to updated information and not to changes in the appropriations. The method for compiling GBARD data changed in 1996. The series have been revised retrospectively to exclude contract research, state enterprises and payments to the European Commission.
