Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing provisions of this Order and subject to such conditions, if any, as it thinks fit, the Tribunal, on application by any wholesaler or retailer, may authorize special maximum wholesale or retail prices in respect of any goods to which this Order applies where special circumstances exist or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or otherwise) are incurred by the wholesaler or retailer.
