Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Repeal Regulations 2000

Section 8 of the Primary Industries (Excise) Levies Act 1999 provides that the Governor-General may make regulations prescribing matters required or permitted by that Act to be prescribed or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to that Act.

Section 30 of the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Act 1991 provides that the Governor-General may make regulations prescribing matters required or permitted by that Act to be prescribed or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for carrying out or giving effect to that Act.

The Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Repeal Regulations 2000 (the Repeal Regulations) repeal the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Regulations. The Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Regulations were made under the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Act 1991 and the Horticultural Levy Act 1987 and continued in force under Schedule 15 to the Primary Industries (Excise) Levies Act 1999.

The provisions of the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Regulations are being migrated to regulations under tile Primary Industries (Excise) Levies Act 1999 by way of the Primary Industries (Excise) Levies Amendment Regulations 2000 (No. 1) which are also expressed to commence on 1 July 2000. It follows that the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Regulations are no longer necessary and should be repealed. The Repeal Regulations effect that repeal.

Regulation 4 of the Repeal Regulations is a savings provision that removes any doubt that any obligation in existence under the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (Nursery Products) Regulations immediately before the commencement of the Repeal Regulations continues to apply.

The Repeal Regulations commence on 1 July 2000.
