Fuel excise cut ends as petrol prices surge
Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description
Fuel excise discount ends at midnight Sunday, causing petrol prices to rise by 17.5 cents per litre across Australia. City motorists will experience the increase immediately while regional areas may take weeks to feel the impact. The opposition is pushing for an inquiry into the government's $7 billion fuel and fertiliser shipment underwriting scheme, with allegations of price manipulation after only three fertiliser companies received access.
