How to use these Regulations

1.         This Note is not part of the Regulations and does not have any legal force.  It is intended only to be helpful in reading the Regulations.  It is not intended to take the place of the Regulations or of the Act.

What these Regulations do

2.         These Regulations are made under the Primary Industries (Customs) Charges Act 1999 (the Customs Charges Act).  The Customs Charges Act authorises the imposition of primary industries charges that are duties of customs.  The funds raised by the imposition of the charges are distributed to research, marketing and industry bodies for each primary industry commodity or class of commodities.

2A.      Charges are also imposed on some plant products to fund national emergency plant pest responses and the activities of Plant Health Australia Limited.

2B.      Charge is also imposed on a number of animal products to fund national emergency animal disease response (EADR) activities.

3.         The Customs Charges Act is made up of preliminary provisions and 14 Schedules.  Each of Schedules 1 to 13 imposes charge on a primary industry commodity or class of commodities.  Schedule 14 allows the regulations to impose charges on primary industry products.

4.         These Regulations set out the rates of charge and other details that are necessary for the administration of the charges imposed by the Customs Charges Act.

How these Regulations are arranged

5.         These Regulations are made up of preliminary provisions and a number of Schedules. The preliminary provisions contain general matters and definitions. Schedules 1 to 13 each prescribe details for a commodity or class of commodities. Schedule 14 imposes charge on other primary industry products, sets the rate of charge and provides for who is liable to pay the charge.

6.         Some Parts of Schedule 10 await the insertion of substantive content. Notes under the respective headings indicate the commodities with which those Parts will deal, and the current arrangements in respect of those commodities.

What are the rates of charge?

7.         The maximum rates of charge for each commodity or class of commodities are set out in the relevant Schedule to the Customs Charges Act.  Each Schedule to the Act allows the regulations to set a lesser rate.  Each of the Schedules to these Regulations may contain clauses setting rates of charge.
