Paris: French Prime Minister Manuel Valls on Thursday said growth in Eurozone`s second largest power was getting stronger with unemployment falling while maintaining this year`s growth target.
According to Valls, the country`s high unemployment rate, which stands currently at 9.9 percent, started lowering after government measures aimed at stimulating recruitment.
"The French economy is creating new jobs. The companies have created 140,000 jobs in recent months. This is the result of strong growth and of all adopted measures that offer more investment opportunities," he added.
Valls said the government would "continue cut income tax" in 2017 in order" to restore purchasing power.
