BOE’s Haskel says would rather hold rates until there is more certainty on inflation

• Need more certainty that inflation pressures have subsided sustainably
• Looking closely at labour market conditions and inflation indicators such as services inflation
• Recent wage data is consistent with the idea that “underlying” unemployment rate has risen
• There are considerable second-round effects at play currently, will fade over the coming years
