RBA governor Bullock: We still think policy is in restrictive territory
As we are still in restrictive territory, that is still exerting downwards pressure on inflationWe didn't go as high (on rates) as other countries, so they've had to cut quite quicklyWe can still possibly cut but we may not have quite as much room to go because we didn't go as high in the first placeWe want to see more information on inflation and labour market before what we do nextWe are trying to find a balance here, we're in the "narrow path"The aim is to get inflation back to the middle of the 2% to 3% target bandThe market has more confidence than I do on what path will deliver us sustainably back to the middle of the target bandHowever, I don't share that same confidence yet
