Production output grew by 0.6 per cent month on month (MoM) in December, but it fell by 1 per cent QoQ in Q4 2023. This fall was driven by a 0.9-per cent drop in manufacturing, with 10 out of 13 manufacturing sub-sectors declining over this period.

The monthly growth in production followed a 0.5-per cent growth in November (revised up from a 0.3-per cent growth earlier) and a fall of 1.4 per cent in October (revised down from a fall of 1.3 per cent earlier).

Output GDP was estimated to have an annual growth of 0.4 per cent last year compared with the 2022 figure.
