Original review summary

Fact Crescendo concluded that the circulating post was false: it showed prices from a May 2 increase, not the prices in effect after the amendment passed. The review says prices had fallen on June 29 and August 31, and reports that the prices in effect on September 30 midday were those set after the August reduction.[S1]

Additional context

An October 1 update says a monthly fuel-price revision took effect from midnight on September 30, with increases for some fuel types. The review nevertheless describes the circulating post as false because it used an old price list. [S1]
