Fuel prices will increase by just 4.9c per litre. This is below the 23c to 25c per litre increase expected by the AA.

The department says despite the fact that these increases were caused mainly by international factors, it has decided to intervene temporarily for this month. This is a once-off intervention to provide some relief to motorists and consumers against fuel price hikes.
