figure was up 1% - there were two fewer working days in 2016
than in 2015. In its October budget planning document, the
government has estimated a GDP rise of 0.8% for 2016.
GDP rose by 0.2% in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to
the previous three months, according to a calendar-adjusted and
seasonally-adjusted estimate released by ISTAT on Tuesday.

to the same period in 2015.
The quarter-on-quarter growth was down from the 0.3% rise
registered in the July-September period in 2016.
