Description

This includes annual values from the cited UKMOD country report, but also includes quarterly CPI. If this is from another source, let's cite it; if it's instead interpolated, let's move the interpolation to the new automatic approach.

Research direction

Start with openfisca_uk/parameters/uprating/CPI.yaml and inspect the 2021 quarterly CPI values alongside the cited UKMOD country report. Establish whether the values come from another source or are interpolated, then ensure the source is cited or the interpolation uses the new automatic approach. Done means the quarterly values have a documented origin or have been moved to that automatic approach.
