Abstract

  • The economy will grow by 0.9 per cent this year, and by 1.5 per cent in 2014.

  • Unemployment rate will remain roughly flat at about 8 per cent both this year and next.

  • Consumer price inflation will temporarily rise above 3 per cent this year but will fall back to 2.3 per cent, on average, next year.

  • We expect a slight decline in public sector borrowing this year, to 7.1 per cent of GDP, although even that is only as a result of the change to the accounting treatment of the Asset Purchase Facility.
