<p>The retail fuels market is subject to UK competition law under the Competition
and Markets Authority (CMA), formerly the Office of Fair Trading (OFT).</p><p> </p><p>The
Department for Transport has written twice to the CMA setting out our concerns to

that can result from competition. We are now working with them to examine whether

more competitive fuel prices for consumers at motorway forecourts, without compromising
safety.</p>
