Show Notes
Western Australias government plans to create a massive diesel stockpile to safeguard the state from future fuel crises, particularly impacting key industries like farming and mining. This initiative aims to bypass federal rules that limit fuel reserves and address the vulnerability of remote communities and smaller mining operations. The state is currently scouting storage options with the mining sector and will utilize the transport network, including independent truckers, for distribution. The government also urges fuel retailers to pass on recent excise cuts to drivers and collaborate with watchdogs to prevent price gouging.
