Abstract

The rate of growth of output continues to decline but the rate of slowdown of domestic demand appears to have eased. Prospects for inflation have worsened. A tightening of fiscal policy offers the best guarantee of minimising further inflationary pressure, allowing base rates to come down sooner than presently appears to be likely.
