The Office for National Statistics classifies the education and health sub-sectors within two sectors; public non-housing (direct government funding) and commercial (PFI funded work).The Association has combined these sub-sectors to form sections for education and health that include both funding streams. As a result, the text has been excluded from the public non-housing and commercial sections to avoid repetition.rnA notable feature of the construction recession is the clear distinction between public and private sector construction. While private sector construction continues to fall sharply, public sector construction continues to enjoy significant growth with an array of projects and programmes boosting construction and preventing the sharpest construction recession on record being even worse. In the medium term, post-election, public funding is set to fall significantly and this is expected to lead to significant falls in the public non-housing sector; exacerbated by falls in output after work on the Olympics is completed.
