DUBLIN, July 14 (Xinhua) -- Ireland's gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 9.4 percent in 2022, slightly less than the 12 percent estimate published in March, the country's Central Statistics Office (CSO) said Friday.

Calculated at constant prices, the country's GDP amounted to 475 billion euros (533 billion U.S. dollars) in 2022, an increase of nearly 41 billion euros compared to 2021, the CSO said.

On Friday, the CSO also published the revised GDP growth rate for the first quarter of 2023, which showed a 2.8 percent contraction compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. This was slightly higher than the CSO's previous estimate of 2.7 percent. (1 euro = 1.12 U.S. dollars)
