Irish manufacturing output fell for third straight month in January as operating conditions continued to deteriorate at the start of 2012. Output and new orders both fell at solid rates. Meanwhile, firms continued to reduce output prices in spite of another strong rise in input costs. On a more positive note, new export orders increased marginally for the second month running.
