dc.description.abstract This chapter investigates whether fuel expenditures are regressive or progressive in South Africa. This would then suggest whether a fuel tax would be an effective or desirable instrument for pollution control. The study also investigates alternative price reforms for different types of fuel to ascertain their distributional effects on different households. en
