Issued by Authority of the Minister for Primary Industries and Energy
Grain Legumes Levy Act 1985

Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Regulations (Grain Legumes) Regulations (Amendment)
Section 10 of the Grain Legumes Levy Act 1985 and Section 30 of the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Act 1991 provide that the Governor-General may make regulations not inconsistent with these Acts, prescribing matters required or permitted to be prescribed; or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to these Acts.
The regulations correct a drafting error in the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Act 1991 which had the effect of including seed grain legumes for sowing with grain legumes in a pool when these should have been alternatives for the purposes of determining the value of grain legumes.
These regulations are effective from 3 July 1998, the date of proclamation of Schedule 2 of the National Residue Survey Administration Amendment Act 1998.
