The economy contracted in 2012 due to the impact of fiscal consolidation on private consumption expenditures and the effects on investment of uncertainty about the euro area. The economy is projected to recover slowly in 2013 as domestic demand strengthens and external conditions improve. Indirect tax increases are temporarily boosting inflation, but inflation expectations are well anchored.
