South Africa: Economic Freedom Fighters File Suit To Challenge Proposed Fuel Levy Increase

The South Africa-based Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), has filed a suit at the Western Cape High Court to challenge the proposed fuel levy increase.

Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana announced a general fuel levy increase of 15 cents per liter for diesel and 16 cents per liter for petrol when he tabled this year’s budget in Parliament for the third time last month.

The general fuel levy increase is expected to come into effect on June 4.

The EFF filed its papers last week, arguing that the implementation of the fuel levy increase will be economically harmful.
