South Africa will reintroduce temporary fuel levy cuts costing 10 billion rand ($609 million) from November to ease cost-of-living pressures, Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana said. The intervention revives relief measures previously deployed during energy price spikes linked to conflict in the Middle East affecting Brent Crude Oil. The policy aims to support household budgets while preserving fiscal stability in the country's public finances.
