Slower growth since the second half of 2017 is projected to give way to growth of over 2% from mid‑2018. The uplift will be export‑led, reflecting gradual restoration of oil pipeline capacity and strong US growth. Business investment is projected to strengthen to ease tightening capacity constraints. Unemployment should decline further to record lows.
