Harmonized index down by 0.3 per cent

The harmonized index of consumer prices (HICP) for Norway was 109.7 (1996=100) in August, a decrease of 0.3 per cent from July. From August 1999 to August this year the HICP increased by 3.5 per cent compared with 3.3 per cent in July.

The decrease from July to August is mainly due to decreased prices of petrol, clothing, footwear and food. On the other hand, there was an increase in rents and higher prices in kindergartens and for dental services.

The HICP for the EEA in July remained unchanged from June. The year to year growth in June was 2.2 per cent. The last twelve months Ireland has had the highest growth in the EEA with 5.9 per cent, and the United Kingdom had the lowest increase with 1.0 per cent.
