Slight rise in inflation

Fri, 02 Dec 2016

There was little change to the Island's inflation rate during November as the consumer prices index climbed to 1%.

It's a slight increase on October's rate of 0.9%, and the third straight month that the index has been positive.

Tea, air travel and petrol and oil are the items that have seen the biggest price rises over the last 12 months.

However, oil and fats, butter and gas have all fallen.
