A fuel retailer's applauding the Commerce Commission for raising awareness about prices at the pump ahead of the removal of Auckland's fuel tax. 

The commission's calling out retailers who lag in dropping prices at the pump, saying it's costing motorists millions each year. 

It says it's a timely reminder, with the Auckland Regional Fuel Tax being removed at the end of this month. 

Waitomo Group Chief Executive Simon Parham told Mike Hosking that they can't wait for it to be scrapped. 

He says it was poorly thought-out tax and it's created complexity for both customers and themselves.
