PURSUANT to the Control of Prices Act 1947, the Price Tribunal hereby makes the following Price Order:

  1. This Order may be cited as Price Order No. 1576, and shall come into force on the 1st day of November 1954.
  2. (1) Price Order No. 1549* 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.

APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER

  1. This Order applies with respect to nails of the kinds and gauges specified in the Schedule hereto.

FIXING MAXIMUM WHOLESALE AND RETAIL PRICES FOR NAILS TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

Wholesalers’ Prices

  1. The maximum price that may be charged or received by any wholesaler for any nails to which this Order applies shall be determined as follows:
    (a) For nails sold by a wholesaler whose place of business is situate in any of the cities of Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, or Dunedin, the maximum wholesale price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto:
    (b) For nails sold by any other wholesaler, the maximum wholesale price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto increased by a proportionate part of any freight charges incurred by the wholesaler in obtaining delivery into his premises.

Retailers’ Prices

  1. The maximum price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any nails to which this Order applies shall be determined as follows:
    (a) For nails sold by a retailer whose place of business is situate in any of the cities of Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, or Dunedin, the maximum retail price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto:
    (b) For nails sold by any other retailer, the maximum retail price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto increased by a proportionate part of any freight charges paid by the retailer to the wholesaler from whom the nails were purchased or incurred by the retailer in obtaining delivery into his premises.

  2. If in respect of any lot of nails sold by a retailer the maximum retail price calculated in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Order is not an exact number of pence or half-pence, the maximum price of the lot shall be calculated to the next upward halfpenny.

Special Prices Where Extraordinary Charges Incurred

  1. 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 prices in respect of any nails 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. Any authority given by the Tribunal under this clause may apply with respect to a specified lot or consignment of nails, or may relate generally to all nails to which this Order applies sold by the wholesaler or retailer while the approval remains in force.
