This release is categorised as a CSO Frontier Series Output. Particular care must be taken when interpreting the statistics in this release as it is experimental work and uses data sources which are incomplete. The Preliminary estimate is based predominantly on economic Output data and is not based on both Expenditure and Output data therefore results will be subject to revision over time. Publishing the Preliminary Estimate allows the CSO to provide useful new information to users and receive informed feedback on these new methods and outputs whilst at the same time making sure that the limitations are well explained and understood.
