Abstract

In the second quarter of 1994, the provisional estimate of GDP at market prices - money' GDP - rose by 1.4%. After allowing for inflation and adjusting for factor costs, GDP grew by 1% during the quarter, compared with the 0.9% increase recorded in the first quarter of 1994. Over the year to the second quarter, 'real' GDP is estimated to have risen by 3.7%, and now stands 1.8% above the last peak in the second quarter 1990 which preceded the recession.
