REGULATIONS
UNDER THE DRIED FRUITS EXPORT CHARGES ACT 1924-1927.
WHEREAS
by section 4 of the Dried Fruits Export
Charges Act 1924-1927, it is enacted that the Governor-General may, after
report to the Minister by the Dried Fruits Control Board constituted under the Dried Fruits Export Control Act 1924,
make regulations prescribing a lower rate of the charge imposed on dried currants,
dried sultanas, or dried lexias exported from the Commonwealth.
And whereas the Board has reported
to the Minister that the rate of charge to be imposed on dried currants and
dried lexias exported from the Commonwealth, as from the first day of March,
One thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven, should be at a lower rate than is
prescribed in the Dried Fruits Export
Charges Act 1924-1927, namely, at the rate of one-sixteenth of a penny for
each pound of dried currants and dried lexias exported:
Now, therefore, I, the
Governor-General in and over the Commonwealth of Australia, acting with the
advice of the Federal Executive Council, hereby make the following Regulations
under the Dried Fruits Export Charges Act
1924-1927, to come into operation as from the first day of March, One
