MAXIMUM PRICES AND CHARGES FOR SERVICES WITH RESPECT TO
TIRES OF THE KINDS TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

  1. (1) The maximum price that may be charged or received
    for any retreaded or recapped tire to which this Order applies that
    is sold ex stock shall be two-thirds of the price which the seller is
    authorized, pursuant to the Control of Prices Act 1947, to charge
    for that kind of tire if sold by retail when new.
    (2) With respect to car tires the maximum prices fixed in respect
    thereof by subclause (1) of this clause are inclusive of the cost of
    fitting the tires.

  2. (1) Subject to the following provisions of this clause, the
    maximum charge that may be made for the service entailed in the
    retreading or recapping, on behalf of a customer, of any tire to
    which this Order applies shall be the appropriate charge specified
    in the Schedule hereto with respect to that kind of tire.
    (2) The charge fixed by subclause (1) of this clause shall be
    reduced by the amount of the discount specified in the said Schedule
    when payment is made on or before the 20th day of the month next
    following the month in which the charge is incurred.
    (3) When freight charges are incurred on any tire retreaded or
    recapped on behalf of a customer, the amount of the freight charges
    one way only shall be borne by the person performing the retreading
    or recapping.
    (4) No extra charge shall be made for rubber repairs which are
    made under the new tread.

  3. 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 person concerned, may authorize
    special prices or special charges in respect of retreaded or recapped
    tires to which this Order applies where special circumstances exist
    or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or otherwise) are
    incurred by that person. Any authority given by the Tribunal
    under this clause may apply with respect to a specified lot of tires
    or may relate generally to all tires to which this Order applies sold
    or retreaded or recapped while the approval remains in force.
