Australia's temporary fuel excise cut, which has brought down petrol prices, is likely to remain just that, federal Energy Minister Chris Bowen says.
The three-month cut to the fuel excise started in April in response to soaring prices caused by the US-Israeli-led war on Iran and will run out at the end of June.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has neither ruled out nor confirmed he will extend the measure, which has reduced the cost of petrol and diesel by 26.3 cents a litre.
