New Zealand's inflation rate has taken another tumble - dropping from 6.7 percent to 6.

Today's 0.7 point drop in the Consumer Price Index represents the largest fall in annual inflation in more than two years.

Despite the drop, prices are still increasing at rates not seen since the 1990s.

Food prices remain a major driver of the inflation - up more than 12 percent annually.

NZ Herald Business Editor at Large Liam Dann joined Kerre Woodham to discuss the results.
