在改革的背景下，新欧洲统计规则要求，无论出于航空目的飞机在哪个国家注册，当飞机的所有权在不同国家的企业间转移时，国家就要记录飞机交易。

These updated rules mean that figures on the growth of the Irish economy in Q1 of the year have been delayed for weeks. , said the newspaper.

该报称，欧洲租赁规则更新意味着爱尔兰第一季度经济增长数据将推迟几个星期公布。

该报道指出，从爱尔兰角度来说，这一改革带来的影响巨大。因为该国的飞机租赁公司占全球民用飞机的10%，尽管事实上大部分飞机没有在爱尔兰注册。
