Notes: (*) The coverage of this component is slightly different

from that of "industrial machinery for use in the manufacturing sector" in Table 2, due to the fact that some items of industrial machinery are used outside the manufacturing sector.

Figures represent percentage changes over the same period in the preceding year.
