IMF

Asked for a response to an International Monetary Fund report published today, the Prime Minister’s Official Spokesman (PMS) said the IMF’s report highlighted the risks economies continue to face around the world. He said that although the UK is forecast to have stronger growth than France or Germany in 2013, difficulties in the Euro area still create economic head winds.

Asked if the report was about austerity measures, the PMS said the fact that the IMF had highlighted the global economic risks principally linked to the Eurozone was of central importance. He repeated what the Chancellor has said: we are slowly but surely fixing this country’s economic problems, the deficit is down by a third and 1.2 million private sector jobs have been created.
