Liam Dann: NZ Herald Business Editor on the newly released inflation figures - Kerre Woodham Mornings Podcast

Inflation has defied many expectations by falling in the third quarter.  

Figures show it rose 5.6% in the year to September, a drop from 6.0% in the year to June. 

The Reserve Bank had predicted it would be six%, and many economists picked between 6.1-and-6.2%.

He says monetary policy is obviously working and getting people to put their wallets away.
