Issued by the Authority of the Minister for Resources
LIVE-STOCK SLAUGHTER (EXPORT INSPECTION CHARGE) COLLECTION ACT 1979
LIVE-STOCK SLAUGHTER (EXPORT
INSPECTION CHARGE) COLLECTION REGULATIONS
(REPEAL)
The Live-stock Slaughter (Export Inspection Charge) Collection Act 1979 (the Act) provides for the collection of the charge imposed by the Live-stock Slaughter (Export Inspection Charge) Act 1979.
Section 11 of the Act provides that the Governor-General may make regulations, not inconsistent with the Act, prescribing all matters required or permitted to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to the Act.
Fee for service for slaughter floor meat inspection will be introduced from 1 July 1988 by orders under the Export Control Act 1982, obviating the need for regulations under the Act providing for the collection of the per carcase rate of charge for export inspection of live-stock.
Accordingly, the Live-stock Slaughter (Export Inspection Charge) Collection Regulations (Repeal) (the Repeal Regulations) repeal the Live-stock Slaughter (Export Inspection Charge) Collection Regulations.
The Repeal Regulations commence on 1 July 1988.
