Dumping Duties under Section 11 of the Customs Amendment Act, 1921.

Customs Department,
Wellington, 6th July, 1922.

IT is hereby notified, for public information, that dumping duties under section 11 of the Customs Amendment Act, 1921, will not be immediately levied except in special cases in respect to which Collectors of Customs will exercise a certain amount of judgment.

2. No dumping duties will be levied without the notice hereinafter provided, where British industries may be affected, without special reference to the Minister, and only important cases are to be referred, accompanied by copies of invoices.

3. No dumping duties will be levied without the notice hereinafter provided, where New Zealand industries are affected, unless the importations are of such a character that they are likely immediately and for some time to affect local industries, e.g. (a) the importation of 10,000 casks of cement to be landed by reason of dumping at a cost below that at which locally made cement can be sold; (b) the importation of £10,000 worth of tweeds under similar conditions. Collectors are nevertheless to refer to the Head Office any cases of sufficient importance where dumping, as affecting local industries, is considered to have taken place. Copies of invoices are also to be forwarded.

4. So far as is practicable, and except in the special cases before referred to, three months notice will be given to importers of intention to levy dumping duties. This notice will appear in the Gazette as occasion arises.

5. The foregoing general rules are for the guidance of Collectors of Customs, but the right is reserved to levy dumping duties in cases where it is found that advantage is being taken of such rules to avoid these duties.

Comptroller of Customs.
