"Automatic fuel price adjustments were suspended after deadly riots with more than 100 deaths in Feb 2008, protesting, amongst others, fuel price increases. Fuel prices were frozen until Dec 2008 when they were lowered, and have not been adjusted since. Government’s policy since 2008 is to compensate the national oil company’s refinery for the difference between the prices set by the formula adopted in 2007 and the administratively fixed prices. Government spent FCFA 146 billion (US$0.3 billion) in 2010 (1.3% of GDP) and FCFA 309 billion (US$0.65 billion) in 2011 (2.5% of GDP) on fuel subsidies, and subsidies in 2012 are expected to reach FCFA 400 billion (US$0.8 billion). Cumulative obligations and arrears to the refinery at the end of 2011 amounted to FCFA 445 billion (US$0.9 billion), or 3.7% of GDP. In Mar 2012, as part of the measure to clear the arrears, government agreed to cancel FCFA 87 billion (US$0.2 billion) worth of taxes due from the refinery in the second half of 2011. Government announced fuel price increases effective Jan 2012, but backed down after threats of a strike."
