Chapter IV. Production

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  26 March 2020

Extract

In February 1967 the industrial production forecast was based on ‘present policies'; it then appeared that total national output in 1967 might rise only marginally, by 0.3 per cent, from 1966 to 1967; and that on the basis of previous experience, to such a small rise in gross domestic product would correspond a fall in industrial production of about ½ per cent.
