 Interest rates have not changed        
 followinW the meeting between the      
 Chancellor and the Govjrnot of the Bank
 of England.                            
                                        
 It now seems that they are unlikely to 
 move until after the Genital Election. 
                                        
 As a consequence, both shares and gilts
 have increased, so the yield on gilts  
 has fallen, therefore it seems unli+ely
 t(at annuity rates will rise any       
 furthjt for thu time bjink, and it i;  
 likely that they may fall slightly.
