EEF comment on Industrial Production figures

Commenting on September's Industrial Production figures, EEF Senior Economist, Jeegar Kakkad, said:

"Given the steep fall in output over the last year at some point there was going to be a rebound of which today's figures may be a sign.

However, one month's figures do not suggest we are out of the woods or that the shape of any recovery is now determined. Policymakers cannot afford to take their foot off the pedal as the risks to losing momentum remain."
