CPI stands at 1.6%, RPI at 4.7%

CPI deceased by 1% in July, down from 2.6%, and RPI dropped by just about the same amount.
Chris Thomas admits factors like the exchange rate and oil prices are beyond the control of the Manx government.
But he insists there are steps that can be taken to mitigate for the figure:
Police warn school leavers underage drinking has 'serious consequences'
Year 11s set to go on study leave over the next week
Gas supplier provides reassurance amid ongoing global market volatility
Isle of Man Energy expects any price rise in June to be 'modest'
Farmers in race against time after freight backlog in Heysham
