PM announces new fuel supply taskforce as price-gouging ... - SBS
Anthony Albanese said Australia's fuel supply "is currently secure" but he wants the country to be "over-prepared".
www.sbs.com.auHere’s a concise update on the Australian government’s fuel campaign based on recent reporting.
-
The government has launched a multi-million-dollar advertising drive to encourage Australians to use less fuel as a response to ongoing global fuel supply pressures. This campaign is part of a broader National Fuel Security Plan and aims to reduce unnecessary trips and use fuel more efficiently.[1][3]
-
In parallel, officials have announced measures to bolster domestic fuel supply and address shortages, including temporary reliefs and policies to keep essential services powered and ensure regional areas maintain access to fuel.[2][3]
-
Public discussion has centered on transparency and how best to communicate fuel security data, with calls for dashboards or clearer updates on stock levels and readiness.[3][5]
If you’d like, I can pull key quotes from these sources, summarize the campaign mechanics (phases, target behaviors, estimated impact), or compile a brief timeline of actions announced in March–April 2026. I can also create a small chart showing campaign milestones and stock-supply updates if that would help.
