Fuel relief for July

Lower international oil prices throughout June have set up a substantial fuel price drop for July, and the reduction could have been greater had it not been for the weak Rand.

This is according to the unaudited month-end fuel price data released by the Central Energy Fund. As of Wednesday 3 July, the inland petrol price has dropped by 86 cents a litre, and diesel by 75 cents.
