Petition Action

Regulate fuel stations pricing, only allow a set percentage above wholesale cost

Petition Details

Diesel is artificially kept at a higher price above petrol, even though the wholesale cost of petrol is more than the wholesale cost of diesel. Regulate the fuel retailers, making pricing more average across the fuel stations. Allow a maximum percentage profit above the cost of the wholesale price.

Additional Information

The fuel retailer pricing is not regulated and it is up to the government to make this regulation law. Make it law to only allow a maximum percentage profit on the price of a litre of fuel. This will keep pricing fair and average over the different fuel stations.
