Heavy rain has begun flooding some areas, raising transport risk. The Commerce Ministry has told provincial commerce offices to track stock levels and prices of essential goods and report flood areas and needs. It is also working with wholesalers, retailers and local operators to restock affected areas. Expect possible delivery delays and local price pressure in flooded regions. Keep stock of essentials, check your supply routes, and show price tags clearly. Complaints about unfair prices, shortages or hoarding can go to the Department of Internal Trade hotline 1569 or your provincial commerce office.
