The Cost of Living Council eased fuel ceilings enabling about a third of independent stations to raise prices by up to 14.2 cents per gallon. The policy allows automatic passthrough after November 1 to cover rising wholesale costs, while heat oil and diesel saw limited retail increases. The change aims to curb protests against regulations and reduce price volatility for motorists amid ongoing shortages.
