On Monday, 4 May, the Central Energy Fund (CEF) and the Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources published the official fuel price adjustments for May. It delivered some pretty bad news all around, though it was the country’s diesel drivers who felt the sting with a R6.19/l increase. Fortunately, the CEF has confirmed an error in its initial calculations and reissued the adjustments with a smaller (but still painful) diesel price hike.
