Wage and price actions ease pay and rates impacts
Retroactive pay advances cleared as Nixon signs a wage bill expanding back pay for contracted increases during the freeze. The Price Commission plans to review a 3.41 percent insurance rate hike for 1.4 million federal workers. Guidelines limit rate increases to avoid profiteering while ensuring wage and rent adjustments are treated with care. The CPI rose 0.2 percent in November, rail freight surcharges face limits, and Kodak看到 a 1.97 percent price rise awaiting approvals.
Rent rules clarified by Price Commission Q&A
Details explain rent increases under new rules with no fixed cap, automatic 2.5 percent rise plus adjustments for taxes, costs, or hardship. Examples show monthly rents could rise from 100 to 102.50 or 109 to 112.78, with notices and base rents defined, and long-term leases treated differently from weekly or monthly rentals.
