While figures released today showed the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) rose by 5.1% in the 12 months to November, up from 4.2% in October, inflation in producer prices was even greater.

Transport and fuel were up, but the biggest increase in prices came from metals and non-metallic minerals, up 21.8% in November.
