The Scottish economy is poised to come out of recession. But there is still
uncertainty whether the exit will have occurred in the fourth quarter of last
year as it did in the UK
economy, all be it weakly. The UK economy went into recession one quarter ahead
of Scotland and it may be that Scotland will come out of recession one quarter
later than
the UK. The survey evidence for the final quarter of 2009, which cast some
doubt on the strength of the recovery, certainly leaves that possibility
open.
