Pursuant to the Control of Prices Act, 1947, the Price Tribunal, acting with the authority of the Minister of Industries and Commerce, hereby makes the following Price Order:

This Order may be cited as Price Order No. 1252, and shall come into force on the 7th day of June, 1951.
(1) Price Order No. 1105* is hereby revoked.
(2) The revocation of the said Order shall not affect the liability of any person for any offence in relation thereto committed before the coming into force of this Order.
In this Order, unless the context otherwise requires—
“Wholesaler”, in relation to the sale of any goods, includes a manufacturer who sells the goods to a retailer.

APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER

This Order applies with respect to the cycle tires and tubes, specified in the Schedule hereto that have been manufactured by Reid New Zealand Rubber Mills, Ltd., or Dunlop New Zealand, Ltd.

FIXING MAXIMUM PRICES OF GOODS TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

Wholesalers’ Prices

The maximum price (including sales tax) that may be charged or received by any wholesaler for any goods to which this Order applies shall be the appropriate maximum retail price set out in the Schedule hereto, reduced by 22½ per cent. thereof.

Retailers’ Prices

(1) The maximum price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any goods to which this Order applies shall be the appropriate price set out in the Schedule hereto.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
