New data shows the Scottish economy contracted at twice the UK rate in December but GDP jumped 7% across all of 2021.
Output from the Scottish economy contracted during December at twice the rate of the UK figure, new data shows.
December was when new restrictions on hospitality were introduced because of the Covid's Omicron variant.This followed a 10% drop in output during 2020, the first year of the Covid pandemic. The final three months of last year saw a rise in UK GDP of an estimated 1%, while in Scotland, there was a stronger final quarter, growing by 1.3%.
Construction output was up, and stronger winds than in summer months increased the value of energy supply. The electricity and gas sector rebounded with 7.8% growth in the final quarter of 2021.The December figures are classified as "experimental", meaning they do not meet all the requirements for official statistics.
