AMMAN —
A Lawmaker urged the government to reduce taxes on fuel and fix the prices of
oil derivatives next month, said Jo24.
The call by Abdullah
Al-Awad, rapporteur of the Parliamentary Energy Committee, follows widespread
expectations that the government will hike fuel prices again in June.
Awad said the current
tax imposed on fuel “is very high”, and constitutes a “burden on citizens”.
He pointed out that
the energy file is “thorny”, and asserted that he opposed any increase in fuel
or electricity prices. He accused the ministry of avoiding to meet with the
Parliamentary Energy Committee.
