Major price changes

Household energy prices also decreased by 2.3%, mainly due to the 4.6% price decrease of piped gas. On the other hand, the prices of services rose by 1%, which is still due to retrospective pricing. Similarly, prices for spirits and tobacco products and clothing increased by 1% and 0.3% in both categories, partly due to seasonal effects.
