Thanks for this. Those with expert knowledge of knowledge of fixed and random effects models (not me) should be in a better position to comment or to ask for specific extras.  

You should probably be using an extra dummy for North-East England....

Dear Nick,

Thanks for your comment and sorry for my shallow explanations of the problem. Below is the command and result comparison between SAS and STATA.
I have slightly unbalaced data for 4 regional areas of GB.


a-	For Fixed Effect:

SAS:

proc reg data=chapter3.all_area;
Model Ln_qdt = Ln_qdt2 Ln_vkm Ln_income Ln_F deregulation_dummy Time_Trend London_dummy Mets_ dummy Scotland_ dummy Wales_ dummy;
test  London_dv = Mets_dv = Scotland_dv = Wales_dv = 0 ;
run;


STATA:

regress   Ln_qdt Ln_qdt2 Ln_vkm Ln_income Ln_F deregulation_dummy Time_Trend London_dummy Mets_ dummy Scotland_ dummy Wales_ dummy




b-	For Random Effect:

SAS:

proc panel data=chapter3.all_area;
ID area year;
Model Ln_qdt = Ln_qdt2 Ln_vkm Ln_income Ln_F deregulation_dummy Time_Trend / RANONE BP VCOMP=WK
;
run;
                        

STATA:

iis area
 xtreg qdt Ln_qdt2 Ln_vkm Ln_income Ln_F deregulation_dummy Time_Trend, re theta
