Definition

Regional GDP at current market prices (nominal, not adjusted for price changes), millions of pounds sterling.

More on how it is measured
  • The Office for National Statistics builds it from the balanced measure of gross value added (GVA(B)) plus VAT and other taxes on products less subsidies on products.
  • United Kingdom ITL1 regions (the nine English regions, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) and local authorities.

In pounds sterling at current prices, so it is not comparable with gdp (euros), gdp_nzd (New Zealand dollars) or gdp_usd (US dollars) without a conversion, and it is not adjusted for inflation. Estimates are workplace based: output is allocated to the place where the activity happens. The latest year is provisional. The ONS suppressed some local authorities in Wales, Scotland and south west England in its September 2026 release and expects to publish them later.
