May 17 (Reuters) - The Hungarian forint EURHUF= hit a nine-month high on Monday after the deputy governor of the central bank said that from June it will adjust short-term rates proactively to tackle rising inflation risks. "This will be a data-driven process, in several steps...and the possibility of a hike in the base rate is worth assessing already in June," Barnabas Virag told reporters. In Poland, the government on Saturday presented its "Polish Deal" economic programme, promising lower taxes for most, higher healthcare spending and help to buy homes.
