(5) Subject to such conditions, if any, as it thinks fit, the Tribunal, on application by any person concerned, may authorize special prices or margins of profit in respect of any sacks or bags to which this Order applies where for any reason extraordinary freight charges are incurred by any distributor or reseller in obtaining delivery from the source of supply that is nearest or most convenient of access to him. Any authority given by the Tribunal under this subclause may apply with respect to a specified lot or consignment of sacks or bags or may relate generally to all sacks or bags to which this Order applies sold while the approval remains in force.
