CAEN division 09 (rev. 2) is “Mining support service activities”, with 2 activity classes, in section B — Mining and quarrying. Eligibility is checked against the exact class (4 digits) in the programme’s list.
How many active firms are there in mining support services?

Does it matter whether the CAEN code is primary or secondary?
