Industrial production last month was 3.5 percent higher than in August, the statistical office reported.

Meanwhile, output in the construction-and-assembly sector shot up by 16.4 percent in September in year-on-year terms, the office said.

Builders in Poland completed 6.3 percent more homes in the first six months of this year than in the same period in 2017, according to the Central Statistical Office.

Polish President Andrzej Duda in August signed into law a bill aiming to speed up the construction of new homes amid a housing shortage.
