Here are the key points summarized:

• The Bank of England is committed to keeping inflation low and close to target, which is currently above target.
• The central forecast shows inflation rising at the end of this year and falling back to target by 2008, assuming interest rates pick up to 5%.
• However, the real world rarely follows forecasts precisely, and there are many uncertainties in the outlook.
• The Bank will continue to make decisions one month at a time and be wary of giving forecasts of its own future behavior.
• The goal is to maintain economic stability since inflation targeting was first adopted and keep inflation low.
