lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This
is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source: Ministry of

lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This
is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. Percent of GDP See notes for: General

defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by

defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

year, current prices Gross domestic product corresponding to fiscal year is the
country?s GDP based on the same period during the year as their fiscal data. In the
case of countries whose fiscal data are based on a fiscal calendar (e.g., July to
June), this series would be the country?s GDP over that same period. For countries
whose fiscal data are based on a calendar year (i.e., January to December), this

case of countries whose fiscal data are based on a fiscal calendar (e.g., July to
June), this series would be the country?s GDP over that same period. For countries
whose fiscal data are based on a calendar year (i.e., January to December), this
series will be the same as their GDP in current prices. National currency

unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

Net lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total
expenditure. This is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general
government is either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors
in the economy and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources
generated by other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be
viewed as an indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on
the rest of the economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net
lending (+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets
minus net incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source:

unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This
is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source: Ministry of

harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized
definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

of taxes, social contributions, grants receivable, and other revenue. Revenue
increases government?s net worth, which is the difference between its assets and
liabilities (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.20). Note: Transactions that merely change the
composition of the balance sheet do not change the net worth position, for example,
proceeds from sales of nonfinancial and financial assets or incurrence of

number of unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number
of people employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly]
As defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

week or one day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b)
had a formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

general government is either putting financial resources at the disposal of other
sectors in the economy and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial
resources generated by other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance
may be viewed as an indicator of the financial impact of general government
activity on the rest of the economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17).

employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

628 TCD GGXCNL Chad General government net lending/borrowing Net lending
(+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This is a core
GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is either putting
financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and
nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other
sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source: Ministry of

628 TCD GGXCNL_NGDP Chad General government net lending/borrowing Net lending
(+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This is a core
GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is either putting
financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and
nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other
sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. Percent of GDP See notes for: General

the stimulus is not withdrawn in 2010, and so there is no significant fiscal

about 1 percent of GDP (reflecting both higher revenue and lower spending).

924 CHN GGXWDG_NGDP China General government gross debt Gross debt consists of
all liabilities that require payment or payments of interest and/or principal by
the debtor to the creditor at a date or dates in the future. This includes debt
liabilities in the form of SDRs, currency and deposits, debt securities, loans,
insurance, pensions and standardized guarantee schemes, and other accounts payable.
Thus, all liabilities in the GFSM 2001 system are debt, except for equity and
investment fund shares and financial derivatives and employee stock options. Debt
can be valued at current market, nominal, or face values (GFSM 2001, paragraph
7.110). Percent of GDP See notes for: General government gross debt

current prices Gross domestic product corresponding to fiscal year is the
country?s GDP based on the same period during the year as their fiscal data. In the
case of countries whose fiscal data are based on a fiscal calendar (e.g., July to
June), this series would be the country?s GDP over that same period. For countries
whose fiscal data are based on a calendar year (i.e., January to December), this
series will be the same as their GDP in current prices. National currency
Billions Source: CEIC Latest actual data: 2010 Fiscal assumptions: For
2010?11, the government is assumed to continue and complete the stimulus program it
announced in late 2008, although the lack of details published on this package
complicates IMF staff analysis. Specifically, the IMF staff assumes the stimulus is
not withdrawn in 2010, and so there is no significant fiscal impulse. Stimulus is
withdrawn in 2011, resulting in a negative fiscal impulse of about 1 percent of GDP
(reflecting both higher revenue and lower spending). Start/end months of reporting

either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an

As defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

Revenue consists of taxes, social contributions, grants receivable, and other
revenue. Revenue increases government?s net worth, which is the difference between
its assets and liabilities (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.20). Note: Transactions that
merely change the composition of the balance sheet do not change the net worth
position, for example, proceeds from sales of nonfinancial and financial assets or
incurrence of liabilities. Percent of GDP See notes for: General

defined by either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the
OECD harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number
of unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of
people employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

634 COG LE Republic of Congo Employment Employment can be defined by either


the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized
definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the

is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the

defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

643 ERI LUR Eritrea Unemployment rate Unemployment rate can be defined by
either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD
harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those

GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is either putting
financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and
nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other
sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending

financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and
nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other

915 GEO GGXWDG_NGDP Georgia General government gross debt Gross debt
consists of all liabilities that require payment or payments of interest and/or
principal by the debtor to the creditor at a date or dates in the future. This
includes debt liabilities in the form of SDRs, currency and deposits, debt
securities, loans, insurance, pensions and standardized guarantee schemes, and
other accounts payable. Thus, all liabilities in the GFSM 2001 system are debt,
except for equity and investment fund shares and financial derivatives and employee
stock options. Debt can be valued at current market, nominal, or face values (GFSM
2001, paragraph 7.110). Percent of GDP See notes for: General government

year, current prices Gross domestic product corresponding to fiscal year is the
country?s GDP based on the same period during the year as their fiscal data. In the
case of countries whose fiscal data are based on a fiscal calendar (e.g., July to
June), this series would be the country?s GDP over that same period. For countries
whose fiscal data are based on a calendar year (i.e., January to December), this
series will be the same as their GDP in current prices. National currency

652 GHA LUR Ghana Unemployment rate Unemployment rate can be defined by
either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD
harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD
harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

actual data: 2010. These data are still provisional. Fiscal assumptions:
Macroeconomic and fiscal projections for 2011 and the medium term are consistent
with the policies agreed to between IMF staff and the authorities in the context of
the Stand-By Arrangement. Fiscal projections assume a strong front-loaded fiscal
adjustment, which already started in 2010, but will be followed through with
further measures in 2011?13. Growth is expected to bottom out in late 2010 and
gradually rebound after that, coming into positive territory in 2012. The data
include fiscal data revisions for 2006-2009. These revisions rectify a number of
shortfalls with earlier statistics. First, government controlled enterprises where
sales cover less than 50 percent of production costs have been reclassified into
the general government sector, in line with Eurostat guidelines. A total of 17 such
enterprises or entities were identified and included, including a number of large
loss-making entities. The inclusion implies that the debt of these entities (7�
percent of GDP) is now included in headline general government debt data, and their
annual losses increase the annual deficit (to the extent their called guarantees
were not already reflected). Second, the revisions reflect better information on
arrears (including tax refund arrears, arrears on lump sum payments to retiring
civil servant pensioners, and arrears to health sector suppliers), as well as
corrections of social security balances on account of corrections of imputed
interest payments, double counting of revenues, and other inaccuracies. Finally,
new information on swaps also became available and further helps explain the upward
revision in debt data. Start/end months of reporting year: January/December GFS

Fiscal assumptions: Macroeconomic and fiscal projections for 2011 and the medium
term are consistent with the policies agreed to between IMF staff and the
authorities in the context of the Stand-By Arrangement. Fiscal projections assume a
strong front-loaded fiscal adjustment, which already started in 2010, but will be
followed through with further measures in 2011?13. Growth is expected to bottom out
in late 2010 and gradually rebound after that, coming into positive territory in
2012. The data include fiscal data revisions for 2006-2009. These revisions rectify
a number of shortfalls with earlier statistics. First, government controlled
enterprises where sales cover less than 50 percent of production costs have been
reclassified into the general government sector, in line with Eurostat guidelines.
A total of 17 such enterprises or entities were identified and included, including
a number of large loss-making entities. The inclusion implies that the debt of
these entities (7� percent of GDP) is now included in headline general government
debt data, and their annual losses increase the annual deficit (to the extent their
called guarantees were not already reflected). Second, the revisions reflect better
information on arrears (including tax refund arrears, arrears on lump sum payments
to retiring civil servant pensioners, and arrears to health sector suppliers), as
well as corrections of social security balances on account of corrections of
imputed interest payments, double counting of revenues, and other inaccuracies.
Finally, new information on swaps also became available and further helps explain
the upward revision in debt data. Start/end months of reporting year:

either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by

is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending

of unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of
people employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

Net lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total
expenditure. This is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general
government is either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors
in the economy and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources
generated by other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be
viewed as an indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on
the rest of the economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net
lending (+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets
minus net incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source:

unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized
definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were

263 HTI LUR Haiti Unemployment rate Unemployment rate can be defined by
either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD
harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

263 HTI LE Haiti Employment Employment can be defined by either the


national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized
definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

fiscal year, current prices Gross domestic product corresponding to fiscal year
is the country?s GDP based on the same period during the year as their fiscal data.
In the case of countries whose fiscal data are based on a fiscal calendar (e.g.,
July to June), this series would be the country?s GDP over that same period. For
countries whose fiscal data are based on a calendar year (i.e., January to
December), this series will be the same as their GDP in current prices.

lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This
is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending

actual data: 2010 Notes: Additional WEO data variables submission are done based on
GFSM 2001 (on a cash basis), however, the process of conversion to GFS 2001 remains
ongoing. Fiscal assumptions: The 2010 deficit was lower than expected (0.6 percent
of GDP), reflecting under spending, particularly on public investment. The 2011
deficit is estimated at 1.5 percent of GDP, lower than the budget estimate of 1.8
percent of GDP. While higher oil prices will have a negative budgetary impact in
the abscense of fuel subsidy reform, this effect is likely to be offset by under
spending, in particular on public investment, given significant budgeted increases.
Fiscal projections for 2012 ? 2016 are built around key policy reforms needed to
support economic growth, namely enhancing budget implementation to ensure fiscal
policy effectiveness, reducing energy subsidies through gradual administrative
price increases, and continuous revenue mobilization efforts to increase space for
infrastructure development. Start/end months of reporting year: January/December.

lending (+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This
is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. National currency Billions Source: Ministry of

are done based on GFSM 2001 (on a cash basis), however, the process of conversion
to GFS 2001 remains ongoing. Fiscal assumptions: The 2010 deficit was lower than
expected (0.6 percent of GDP), reflecting under spending, particularly on public
investment. The 2011 deficit is estimated at 1.5 percent of GDP, lower than the
budget estimate of 1.8 percent of GDP. While higher oil prices will have a negative
budgetary impact in the abscense of fuel subsidy reform, this effect is likely to
be offset by under spending, in particular on public investment, given significant
budgeted increases. Fiscal projections for 2012 ? 2016 are built around key policy

433 IRQ GGXCNL_NGDP Iraq General government net lending/borrowing Net lending
(+)/ borrowing (?) is calculated as revenue minus total expenditure. This is a core
GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is either putting
financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy and
nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by other
sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending
(+)/borrowing (?) is also equal to net acquisition of financial assets minus net
incurrence of liabilities. Percent of GDP See notes for: General

harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

mainly based on the outturn as of November 2010, assuming that the first 11 months
had collected/used about 92 percent of total revenue/expenditure. As a result, the
fiscal impulse is projected to be -3 percent of GDP in 2010. Expenditure numbers
for 2011 are broadly in line with the government?s budget. Revenue projections
reflect the IMF staff?s macroeconomic assumptions, adjusted for the tax measures
included in the multiyear stimulus package introduced in 2009 and discretionary
revenue-raising measures included in the 2010 budget. The medium-term projections

accounts at constant prices is 2007. Notes: Real GDP data for the period 1990-1999
have been adjusted by desk economist to account for breaks in the source data. The
breaks are associated with changes in the base year from 1984 to 1995 and
subsequently to 2000. Only pre-revision data exist for the period prior to 1995.
Simple rebasing technique does not apply because even the nominal data were revised
back to 1995. Using the pre-revision data, desk economist recalculated the constant

remains unchanged. A similar adjustment was made to the period 1995-1999. National

data: 2009. The latest year of data for national accounts at constant prices is
2007. Notes: Real GDP data for the period 1990-1999 have been adjusted by desk
economist to account for breaks in the source data. The breaks are associated with
changes in the base year from 1984 to 1995 and subsequently to 2000. Only pre-
revision data exist for the period prior to 1995. Simple rebasing technique does
not apply because even the nominal data were revised back to 1995. Using the pre-
revision data, desk economist recalculated the constant price data for the period
prior to 1995 so that y-o-y change of each component remains unchanged. A similar
adjustment was made to the period 1995-1999. National accounts manual used: SNA

minus total expenditure. This is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to
which general government is either putting financial resources at the disposal of
other sectors in the economy and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the
financial resources generated by other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing).
This balance may be viewed as an indicator of the financial impact of general
government activity on the rest of the economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001,

is a core GFS balance that measures the extent to which general government is
either putting financial resources at the disposal of other sectors in the economy
and nonresidents (net lending), or utilizing the financial resources generated by
other sectors and nonresidents (net borrowing). This balance may be viewed as an
indicator of the financial impact of general government activity on the rest of the
economy and nonresidents (GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.17). Note: Net lending

employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

either the national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD
harmonized definition. The OECD harmonized unemployment rate gives the number of
unemployed persons as a percentage of the labor force (the total number of people
employed plus unemployed). [OECD Main Economic Indicators, OECD, monthly] As
defined by the International Labour Organization, "unemployed workers" are those
who are currently not working but are willing and able to work for pay, currently
available to work, and have actively searched for work. [ILO,

national definition, the ILO harmonized definition, or the OECD harmonized
definition. Persons who during a specified brief period such as one week or one
day, (a) performed some work for wage or salary in cash or in kind, (b) had a
formal attachment to their job but were temporarily not at work during the
reference period, (c) performed some work for profit or family gain in cash or in
kind, (d) were with an enterprise such as a business, farm or service but who were
temporarily not at work during the reference period for any specific reason.

social contributions, grants receivable, and other revenue. Revenue increases
government?s net worth, which is the difference between its assets and liabilities
(GFSM 2001, paragraph 4.20). Note: Transactions that merely change the composition
of the balance sheet do not change the net worth position, for example, proceeds
from sales of nonfinancial and financial assets or incurrence of liabilities.
