GVA for the total economy exceeded €250 billion for the first time in the 2016 reference period, with GVA for MNEs exceeding €100 billion while GVA for the non-MNE dominated sectors exceeded €150 billion.
Of the larger non-MNE sectors, growth was positive in the Wholesale & Retail sector incl. the sale and repair of motor vehicles (+6.0 per cent), Administrative and support service activities (+5.3 per cent), Construction (+15.1 per cent) and the Accommodation and food services sector (+5.5 per cent).

Background Notes
Gross Value Added at Constant Basic Prices Nace Rev 2
This release provides gross value added at current basic prices and constant basic prices (chain linked and referenced to 2015) for the economy divided into two sectors, namely
(a) the economic sectors dominated by Foreign-owned Multi National Enterprises and
(b) all other remaining sectors.
It also provides data concerning the composition of the Foreign-owned multinational dominated sector.
Gross value added at basic prices is measured as the difference between output at basic prices and intermediate consumption at purchasers' prices.
The sectoral data underlying the aggregates in the release are the same as those used for National Income & Expenditure (NIE 2016) Tables 4, which gives a breakdown of the economy at Constant Basic Prices by 10 principal economic sectors (Nace Rev.2 A10), and NIE Table 22 which illustrates a 37 sector breakdown of the Irish economy.

National accounts are compiled in the EU according to the European System of National and Regional Accounts (ESA) framework. In 2014, the new ESA 2010 framework replaced the ESA 95 version and all EU member states were required to adopt ESA 2010 by September 2014. ESA 2010 is the European version of the current UN mandated international standards for national accounts statistics, the System of National Accounts (SNA) 2008. The results for all years in this release are published on an ESA 2010 basis.
