A number of legacy time series relating to historic Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) for the period 1987–1996 were unintentionally included in the Blue Book 2025 dataset. These series have now been removed to maintain consistency with previous practice on pre-1997 data content. We apologise for this correction.

We have corrected a processing error in the Consumer trends time series dataset and the associated data in tables 6.2.13 and 6.2.15, affecting chained volume estimates and the associated growths for the data period of 1985 to 1996.
The series with the Classification of Individual Consumption According to Purpose (COICOP) codes and associated aggregate series 03.1.2, 03.2.2, 04.1.2, 04.4.2, 05.1.3, 07.1.1, 07.2.2, 08.2, 09.1.2, 09.1.3, 11.1.1, 12.1.2, have been updated. All other series and data periods from 1997 onwards are unaffected.
We apologise for this correction.
Notices
31 October 2025
GFCF feeding into capital stocks estimates of gross stocks, net stocks and fixed capital consumption should be equal to the published GFCF position in this Bluebook, due to timing issues during the production of this dataset there are some years where this association does not hold true.
31 October 2025
For non-market sectors, capital consumption (P.51c) is equal to Gross Operating Surplus. Due to timing issues during the production of this dataset there are some years where this association does not hold true.
