"The mission reviewed recent economic developments and program performance at end-March 2013; assessed progress in structural reforms; and discussed economic policies and the outlook for 2013 and beyond. Economic activity for 2012 is now estimated to have contracted by 1.3 percent, reflecting sluggish construction and tourism sectors. Inflation continued to decline to 0 percent at end-March 2013. Despite a challenging economic environment, the overall fiscal position through end-March 2013 was stronger than expected due to buoyant non-tax revenue and expenditure restraint. Economic activity is projected to recover and grow by 2 percent in 2013, based on an expected uptick in tourism and several large construction projects becoming operational."
