Output was virtually stable in the manufacture of transport equipment (−0.1% after −1.9%)
The sharp fall in the manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers (−3.7% after +0.8%) was offset by a strong rebound in the manufacture of other transport equipment (+3.1% after −4.1%).
Output surged in mining and quarrying, energy, water supply, waste management (+4.4% after −2.2%)
Output picked up markedly in electricity, gas, steam and air-conditioning supply due to a cold spell in January.
