Inflation's officially higher than it's supposed to be.
Latest Stats NZ data shows inflation's reached 3.1% – up from 3% at the last update three months ago.
That's above the Reserve Bank's target range of 1 to 3%.
The Herald's Liam Dann told John MacDonald it's also well above the Reserve Bank's forecast of 2.7%.
He says there were hopes inflation was starting to fall again, so to see a rise like this isn't good at face value.
