REGULATION UNDER THE WINE GRAPES CHARGES ACT 1929-1957.*

WHEREAS it is enacted by sub-section (1.) of section three of the Wine Grapes Charges Act 1929-1957 that a charge is imposed and shall be levied and paid on all grapes delivered to a winery or distillery for use in the manufacture of wine:

And whereas it is enacted by sub-section (2.) of that section that, subject to a lower rate of charge being prescribed by the Regulations, the rate of charge—

(a) in respect of fresh grapes, shall be Fifteen shillings per ton; and

(b) in respect of dried grapes, shall be Two pounds five shillings per ton,

of grapes delivered to a winery or distillery for use in the manufacture of wine:

And whereas it is enacted by section five of that Act that the Governor-General may, after report to the Minister by the Australian Wine Board constituted by the Wine Overseas Marketing Act 1924-1961, make regulations for prescribing lower rates of the charge imposed on grapes intended for use in the manufacture of wine:

And whereas the Australian Wine Board has reported to the Minister that the rate of charge to be imposed on grapes delivered to a winery or distillery for use in the manufacture of wine should be Fourteen shillings per ton in respect of fresh grapes and Two pounds two shillings per ton in respect of dried grapes, being rates lower than the rates imposed by the Wine Grapes Charges Act 1929-1957:

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 Regulation under the Wine Grapes Charges Act 1929-1957.
