November rate rise less likely with inflation data lower than expected (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Headline inflation jumped to 4 per cent in August, from 3.5 per cent in July, driven by higher housing costs and automotive fuel prices.

Read excerpt
Business groups, miners and the housing industry have welcomed the federal government's changes to the migration system.
