Our seventh weekly report provides the latest retail petrol and diesel price movements to 22 April, 3 weeks after the fuel excise cut came into effect. Since the excise cut, average retail petrol prices in all capital cities and almost all monitored regional locations have decreased by more than 30 cents per litre. Retail diesel prices have reduced over the last week, however, the movements are yet to fully reflect the recent steep falls in international refined diesel prices. We will continue to scrutinise movements in retail diesel prices closely.
