Continued economic growth predicted

ONE of the strongest advocates of the economy has restated his view this country has the capacity to grow solidly over the next 15 years.

GDP growth of 5 to 5.5% per annum is on the cards for the rest of this decade and for the following decade we are capable of delivering growth of 4/5% in GDP terms.

This will be underpinned by the strong population growth still driving this economy. It will also see us outperform Europe and most OECD economies, he said.
