The minutes indicate a majority that feels satisfied with the current economic climate. The Bank noted inflation and inflation expectations remained anchored. Meanwhile growth had already picked up to its long-term average, and was likely to remain there in the next few quarters. Today's GDP release certainly confirmed the former point.

The risk profile for inflation is just too significant to ignore. Ensuring inflation expectations remain anchored will be the Reserve Bank's primary aim, and this will require the talk to remain tough.

These inflation effects should fade even if energy prices remain elevated, so long as monetary policy keeps inflation expectations well-anchored.
