EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

CUSTOMS ACT 1901

CUSTOMS (PROHIBITED EXPORTS) REGULATIONS (AMENDMENT)

STATUTORY RULES 1987 NO. 301

ISSUED BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR SCIENCE AND SMALL BUSINESS

This regulation removes female Merino sheep, uncastrated male Merino sheep, sheep semen, sheep’s ova, sheep embryos and other sheep breeding material from the Third Schedule to the Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations.

As these items are now controlled under the Export Control (Animals) Orders in force under the Export Control Act 1982 (for which the Minister for Primary Industries and Energy is responsible) it is unnecessary to duplicate the control by maintaining their listing as prohibited exports under the Customs (Prohibited Exports) Regulations.
