Inflation Rate 2.2% Down From 2.7%

The recent ONS statistical release on consumer inflation suggests that the CPI grew by 2.2% in the year to October 2013 down from 2.7% in September, but still above the Government's target of 2%. The main contributions to the fall in the rate came from transport and education. The CPIH and RPIJ likewise moved in a similar direction with rates of 2% from 2.5% and 1.9% from 2.5% respectively.
