\u2705 Government\u2019s desire in as far as the price of fuel is concerned is to have cheap fuel in the country for better economic development.<\/p>\n

\u2705 In this regard, oil marketing companies willing to supply cheap fuel into Zambia are very much welcome.<\/p>\n

\u2705 Government through the Ministry of Energy has received and permitted a number of firms to supply low Sulphur gas oil through the TAZAMA pipeline.<\/p>\n

\u2705 As an interim measure, as we wait for the full implementation of the open access regime, the nominations to supply diesel using the pipeline have been done in line With clause 6 of the TAZAMA pipeline open access guidelines for the transportation of low Sulphur gasoil.<\/p>\n

\u2705 Further, it is important to note that the supply of white petroleum products is a matter of national security and the Ministry of Energy must ensure that there is always security of supply.<\/p>\n

\u2705 To this effect, when security of supply is threatened, the Minister of Energy is empowered under the energy act to take all necessary measures to ensure that security of supply is maintained at all times<\/p>\n

\u2705 On the matter of quarterly price reviews, Government wishes to indicate that the matter is still actively under review.<\/p>\n
