In the above figure, a version of which is repeated across each of the Output method chapters, the 2012-2023 time-series of some notable sectors of the economy are displayed. To allow for greater comparability over time the percentage contribution made by each to the total is displayed.

Manufacturing (C) was the biggest single A21 sector of the economy over the entire 2012-2023 period. Information and Communication (J) was the second biggest sector in 2023. These two sectors dominated and combined they comprised 54% of total Output across the economy in 2023.

Construction (F) had Output which was 17% of Information and Communication in 2023.

The Other category in the figure above is total Output less Manufacturing, Information and Communication and Construction. Sector figures can be found in Table 2.1 above and in the full 1995-2023 time series available in the CSO's PxStat database.
