The new Euro RPI was released this week and currently stands at 1.5%.
Will that now be the interest rate applied to student loans? One reason it
is lower than the traditional measure is that it excludes Council Tax.
As students are not required to pay Council Tax, that seems to make the
lower RPI more relevant and fairer.
