Senators challenge constitutional court over broad fuel price regulation law

A group of senators submitted a request to the Constitutional Court, contending that the recently adopted legislation permits the government to intervene heavily in fuel pricing without adequate protections for operators. They claim the law could lead to financially damaging outcomes for certain market participants. The court has made the petition publicly accessible online. The regulation allows the government to set maximum fuel prices for up to a year and to repeat the measures if legal reasons persist.
