THE HONOURABLE SIR JAMES ALLEN K.C.B., PRESIDING IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS by the Regulation of Trade and Commerce Act, 1914, and its amendments, the Governor-General is empowered to fix the maximum price in New Zealand of any class of goods: And whereas, in pursuance of the authority so conferred upon him, the Governor-General did, by an Order in Council dated the nineteenth day of December, one thousand nine hundred and eighteen, fix and determine the maximum wholesale price of bacon and ham: And whereas it is expedient to extend the provisions of that Order in Council by fixing and determining the maximum retail price of bacon:

Now, therefore, His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance of the authority so conferred upon him, and acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of that Dominion, doth hereby fix and determine the maximum retail price of bacon throughout New Zealand in accordance with the provisions of the Schedule hereto.

SCHEDULE.

  1. THE maximum retail price of bacon shall be 1s. 6d. per lb., save that when bacon is cut into rashers the retailer may add a sum not exceeding 1d. per lb. to the above price.

  2. In any case in which by reason of the remoteness of the premises of the retailer from the source of supply, or by reason of any other special circumstances, the Board of Trade is satisfied that the aforesaid maximum retail price may reasonably be increased by any retailer, the Board may authorize that retailer to exceed the said maximum price by such amount as the Board thinks reasonable, and any such authority may be at any time withdrawn by the Board. So long as any such authority remains in force the price so authorized by the Board shall in respect of that retailer be deemed to be substituted for the maximum price as fixed by clause 1 hereof.

J. F. ANDREWS,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
