The government has suspended indefinitely the new fuel levy, which was scheduled for implementation on Monday, June 16, 2025.
The Energy Sector Levy Account (ESLA) was passed in 2015 and per the new increment, which was presented on the Floor of Parliament by Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, the Minister for Finance, under a Certificate of Urgency, a fortnight ago, the government imposed GH¢1 on every litre of petrol, diesel, LPG and Marine Gas Oil.
