DRIVERS are keeping an eagle eye on petrol prices following the spike in the cost of living.
It comes as the Government has raised concerns that petrol retailers are not passing on the recent 5p per litre cut in fuel duty, after diesel prices hit another record high.
Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng told petrol bosses the competition regulator is monitoring the situation.
However, petrol retailers said their costs had remained high and the Petrol Retailers Association said margins were ‘often not enough to cover operating costs’.
The most up-to-date average fuel prices from the RAC revealed unleaded is currently priced at 166.8p while diesel sits at 180.29p
