The price of diesel decreases between 53.3 and 54.3 cents a litre on Wednesday 3 December whilst the price of all grades of petrol drops by 69 cents a litre.

According to the Department of Energy, “The main contributing factor to the fuel price decreases is the continual drop in the crude oil prices, which fell to about $80 per barrel, during the period under review – 31 October 2014 to 27 November 2014.”
