"Price increases of petroleum products are decoupled from world price movements and smoothed by adjusting the special tax on production and service. For gasoline and diesel, this tax was negative for three years until May 2009, when it became positive gasoline, and has been negative since Jun 2009 for gasoline and since Jul 2009 for diesel. Regular gasoline and diesel prices were raised at a nominal annual rate of 10% in 2010, 2011, and 2012. In 2008 and 2009, the price of regular gasoline grew even more slowly, but the price of diesel rose by 21% in 2008 and 16% in 2009. Ministry of Energy posts detailed price information on petroleum products. For LPG, Ministry of Energy regulates transport and distribution tariffs, and Ministry of Economy gazettes maximum consumer prices in 145 distribution zones every month. When the benchmark prices in Belvieu, Texas, United States, are high, LPG prices in Mexico have been kept below import-parity levels, despite Mexico’s being a large net importer of LPG. The annual implicit subsidy in 2011 for LPG alone amounted to MXN40 billion (US$3.2 billion). Under Mexico’s climate law, passed in Apr 2012 and only the second in the world after UK’s Climate Change Act of 2008, government will formulate rules to phase out fossil fuel subsidies."
