REGULATIONS UNDER THE CUSTOMS ACT 1901-1949.*
WHEREAS by section 112 of the Customs Act 1901-1949 it is provided that the Governor-General may, by regulation, prohibit the exportation of any goods the exportation of which would, in his opinion, be harmful to the Commonwealth :
And whereas it is provided by the said section that the said power of prohibition shall extend to authorize the prohibition of the exportation of goods generally, or to any specified place, and either absolutely or so as to allow the exportation of the goods subject to any condition or restriction :
