PRESS RELEASE
October 25, 2011
TO REDUCE OR NOT TO REDUCE FUEL PRICES; HIGH
COURT TO RULE ON WEDNESDAY (26TH OCTOBER 2011)
An
Accra High Court (Cocoa Affairs, Court 11) presided over
by His Lordship Patrick Baayeh will on Wednesday, 26th
October 2011, give its verdict on whether or not the prices of diesel, petrol, LPG
and other petroleum products currently being charged consumers should be reduced.
On
Wednesday, the court will either uphold or abolish the
controversial ex-refinery differential imposed on fuel
prices in the country since 6th June 2009. After the court’s ruling, the National
Petroleum Authority will also know whether they can get
away with the GH˘661 million they have so far collected
from the imposition of the ex-refinery differential or
whether they have to pay it into the Consolidated Fund.
These
are the issues being tested by Development Data, a
consumer protection and policy research organisation, Mr
Kwaku Kwarteng an aspiring parliamentary candidate of
Obuasi and Mr Abdul Ganiyu of Tamale.
In a writ
filed in the Accra High Court in September 2009 against
the National Petroleum Authority and the Tema Oil
Refinery, the three plaintiffs are praying the court to
rule on matters that will permanently shape Ghana’s
petroleum pricing policies.
On 5th
July 2010, judgement in default of appearance was given
against the
defendants after they failed
to enter appearance for the case. But the court later
set aside its judgement following a plea by the
defendants for a second opportunity to
argue their case.
On
Wednesday, 26th October 2011 at 9.00 am, the High Court
(Cocoa Affairs, Court
11) will give its final
verdict in this landmark case.
