According to an official order issued today by the Department of Energy and Mineral Resources, the existing prices -- set earlier on April 18 -- will continue to be in effect.

The order states that, with approval from the appropriate authorities, these rates will remain unchanged throughout May. This means the existing pricing structure will continue to be effective from May 1.
