BoE sees UK economy in sustained recovery, little inflation risk - minutes

(Reuters) - Britain's economy is in a sustained recovery but there are no major inflation risks and the Bank of England will be in no rush to raise interest rates, minutes of the central bank's November policy meeting showed.

As expected, the minutes showed the nine members of the BoE's Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to leave interest rates at 0.5 percent - where they have been since March 2009 - and not to add to the 375 billion pounds of bond purchases conducted between then and October 2012.
