A surprise for who ?
BBC News: UK industrial output sees surprise fall in April
UK industrial output fell unexpectedly in April, but economists have said the figures should not be a cause for concern.
Output fell by 0.4% compared with March, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said, whereas a rise of 0.4% had been forecast.
It was the first fall in monthly production since January.
Experts said the drop should be seen as a correction after a particularly strong jump in output in March of 2%.
Over the year, output is still rising, as levels were 2.1% higher than in April 2009.
