Revisions
The SA-WDA evolution between May and June of the manufacturing production published during the previous campaign was -1.3 %. It has been revised at -1.2 %. The raw data revisions are attributable to industries‘ belated answers, especially in the manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products, the electrical equipment and the manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations.
