Updated | By Steve Bhengu
The latest fuel price adjustments have been confirmed by government.

From Wednesday, both grades of petrol - 93 and 95 Octane - will go up by 37 cents a litre.
It's a steeper increase for diesel, which will cost 71 and 72 cents more per litre.
Energy spokesperson Robert Maake says the price hikes are due to the international oil price.
