Slovak GDP is accelerating still further edging towards 5% growth next year from 3.4% currently

The February revision of the 2011 growth forecast to 3.4 percent from an originally projected 3.3 percent will boost tax revenue by 9 million euros ($12.3 million), representing less than 0.1 percent of gross domestic product, the ministry said today in a statement from Bratislava, Slovakia.

Tax revenue next year is set to exceed the original projection by 36 million euros, while in 2013 the government will probably collect 85 million euros less than planned, the ministry said. The 2012 and 2013 growth forecast was revised to 4.8 percent for each year, from 4.5 percent and 4.7 percent, respectively.
