3 Y bout Us ECIC CTEXT UK economy experiences subdued performance at the start of.1 growth in economy in Q1 Quarter 1 data shows that UK economic growth slowed, mainly due to a fall in construction output, with construction contributing -.2 to overall output growth. The latest economic output data from the ffice for ational tatistics shows that the UK economy grew by.1 in the first quarter of. This follows on from growth of.4 in the final quarter of. This latest figure is the lowest level of quarterly growth recorded since Q4. It is worth noting that since the growth levels in the first quarter have been significantly below the rates experienced in subsequent quarters (see fig. 1.1). It will be interesting to see if this same rebound occurs this year. However, there is no doubt that this first quarter growth figure, following on from a slight reduction in growth during, points to a slowing economy in the UK. The bad weather experienced in the UK was attributed by some for the poor performance in the first quarter but the stated that the effects of this were generally small. These figures were notably lower than the Bank of England predicted in February when it forecast growth of.4. The main reason for the fall in the quarterly rate of growth is a fall in construction output.

5 Y bout Us THE CTRUCTI ECTR Contract awards decrease but number of projects remains steady Increase in contracts from arch pril has seen 6.8 decrease in contracts awards values but the industrial, hotel, leisure & sport and medical & health sectors remain positive. edical & The latest figures from the indicate the construction sector in the UK declined by 2.7 between Quarter 4 and Quarter 1. This followed a decline of.1 between Quarter 3 and Quarter 4. Two consecutive quarters of decline is defined as a technical recession, so this is the interpretation from these figures.

However it should be noted that new private housing output was still 6 higher than the same quarter of so there is a longer term increase. The commercial sector remains challenged with output falling by 1.9 in Q1 compared to Q4. output also suffered a decline, falling 2.7 in Q1.

This is largely attributable to the slowing of economic growth and the uncertain environment for business investment and specifically uncertainty surrounding Brexit. The level of growth is forecast to increase to 2.7 in with the expectation that there is more clarity on the UK s new trading environment post Brexit. However, given the lack of progress thus far on the Brexit talks there is significant variability implied in the forecasts. Construction ector ccording to Barbour BI data on all contract activity, the value of new construction contracts awarded in pril was 4.9 billion based on a three month rolling average (see fig. 2.4).
