The document has been updated to reflect the change in inflation indexation used to calculate the annual adjustment to the buyout price and mutualisation ceiling. The index used has changed from the Retail Prices Index (RPI) to the Consumer Prices Index (CPI). This document also includes minor updates to operational processes to reflect the differences in process between NI and GB agents.
