Enemalta said that the price of kerosene was going up 4c – from €1.30 to €1.34 and that of gasoil for heating 2c, from 93c to 95c.

The corporation said the prices reflected those fetched by Enemalta for the latest shipments of imported fuel. The price of unleaded and diesel also reflected the increase in petrol stations' maximum retail mark-up, as approved by the Malta Resource Authority.
