* Ireland's GVA data has been adjusted to strip out the distortionary effects of some of the
multinational activity that occurs in Ireland. Specifically a profit proxy is removed from the GVA
data for the sectors in which MNCs dominate (parts of Manufacturing, ICT, and renting and leasing
services). Unadjusted Ireland's figures are +7.1pp (manufacturing) and +6.5pp (tech sector).
