What P includes

• This category encompasses activities of a governmental nature that are typically carried out by public administration bodies. It includes the enactment and interpretation of laws and associated regulations, the administration of programs based on them, legislative activities, taxation, national defense, public order and safety, immigration services, foreign affairs, and the administration of government programs. Legal or institutional status is not the determining factor for inclusion in this category; rather, the activity must be of the nature described in the preceding paragraph. This means that activities classified elsewhere in the KBLI are excluded from this category, even if performed by government bodies. For instance, the administration of school systems (regulations, inspections, and curricula) falls under this category, whereas actual teaching activities do not (Category Q); similarly, prison or military hospitals are classified under the health category (R). By the same token, some activities listed in this category may be carried out by non-governmental units.
• This category also includes mandatory social security activities.
