Today we hear that the increase in CPI is 2% over the past 12 months.
Those with Student Loans will be more interested in what RPI is doing, because whatever it is in 2 months time will set the loan interest rates for 2014/15 academic year.
For 2013/14 academic year Repayment Plan 2 loans are set at 3.3% + 3% =6.3%.
Anyone know where smack up to date RPI tracking data can be found?

From the late great Tommy Cooper: "He said 'I'm going to chop off the bottom of one of your trouser legs and put it in a library.' I thought 'That's a turn-up for the books.' "

Ah I see BBC have plotted a graph today using ONS figures at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10612209 which shows annual increase in RPI has gone up slightly this last month to 2.7%.
I guess RPI must be published on ONS website somewhere ...From the late great Tommy Cooper: "He said 'I'm going to chop off the bottom of one of your trouser legs and put it in a library.' I thought 'That's a turn-up for the books.' "0 -

Thanks atypical.
I think for comparative purposes the link to entire list of ONS publication downloads form the past 12 months may prove useful:

The RPI figure required will be published on 2nd Tuesday of the month so around the 8th. This will give the RPI figure for March which is used for the student loan interest rate and also part of the calculation for next years repayment threshold.0
