Fed: Senator admits he "jumped the gun" on fuelwatch
Federal Independent Senator NICK XENOPHON admits he "jumped the gun" in supporting
moves to introduce FuelWatch into South Australia four years ago.
Senator XENOPHON now says he won't support a national FuelWatch scheme and the government's
legislation as it currently stands.
He's told the Nine Network .. when he was a South Australian politician he believed
FuelWatch was a good idea.
But he says following a parliamentary inquiry .. he now believes the best way to tackle
fuel prices is to tackle the issue of competition amongst the big four oil companies.
