Government action
We’ve acted fast to secure our fuel supply and support Australians who are struggling with costs.
We’ve reduced the fuel tax until 30 June 2026 and passed tough new laws against price gouging to make sure Australians are seeing the savings.
We’ve secured more supply by bringing more fuel into Australia, releasing some of our reserves and keeping more fuel here at home.
