<p>The Government collects price data on a national average basis but is aware that,
on average, fuel prices in Northern Ireland are generally cheaper than those in other
parts of the United Kingdom. The Government therefore welcomes the Competition and
Markets Authority’s (CMA) market study into Great Britain’s road fuel market, investigating
factors driving price variations. The CMA will publish its report including options
for possible next steps by 7th July. The Government will carefully consider the recommendations,
while looking at pro consumer options, which could give drivers better access to fuel
price data.</p>
