Rising fuel prices: Gov’t suspends GH¢1 D-Levy on diesel for 2 months

According to a report by Citi Newsroom, the government will maintain its total GH¢2-per-litre intervention on diesel, but change how the relief is funded.

The government is set to suspend the GH¢1-per-litre Energy Sector Shortfall and Debt Repayment Levy (D-Levy) on diesel for October and November as part of measures to cushion consumers against higher fuel prices.

This means diesel consumers will continue to receive GH¢2 per litre in relief during the two-month period, despite the change in the structure of the intervention.
