Increase in the new building sector

Construction output in the new building sector increased by 11.1 per cent in 1st quarter of 2001 compared to the same quarter the year before. The production index for building renovation decreased by 3,6 per cent in the same period.

Construction output in the building sector as total rose by 4 per cent between 1st quarter of 2000 and 1st quarter of 2001. The activity in the civil engineering sector fell by 13.1 per cent in the same period. For the total construction activity, the production index shows a moderate decrease of 0.4 per cent between 1st quarter of 2000 and 1st quarter of 2001.

Change of method

From 1st quarter of 2000, the calculation of the production index is based on measuring the number of hours worked. Earlier, the calculation is based on employment figures. The quarterly figures calculated after 1999 are therefor not directly comparable with the figures calculated before1st quarter of 2000.
