Island's inflation rate rises

The Isle of Man's inflation rate has risen. 

It stood at 4 per cent at the end of June - up from 3.9 per cent the month before. 

Increases in the cost of petrol and diesel have been blamed - with the price of oil higher than it was 12 months ago. 

Statistics released by the Economics Affairs Unit show the cost of most groceries has also increased in the last year.
