The unemployment rate has risen to 4.5 per cent, hours worked are falling and wages growth is easing. So is it time for the RBA to rethink its view that Australia's labour market is still tight?

They also preview business investment and household spending data, and ask whether Australians should be told exactly how each member of the RBA's Monetary Policy Board votes on interest rates.
