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. 1814, and shall come into force on the 19th day of August 1960.

2. (1) Price Order No. 1783* is hereby revoked.

APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER

3. This order applies only with respect to sales by way of retail of 42 in. woolpacks.

FIXING MAXIMUM RETAIL PRICE OF WOOLPACKS TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

4. (1) Subject to the following provisions of this clause, the maximum price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any woolpacks to which this order applies shall be:

(a) For woolpacks sold by a retailer carrying on business at one of the ports of Auckland, Wellington, Lyttelton, or Dunedin: 12s. 8d. each.

(b) For woolpacks sold by a retailer carrying on business elsewhere than at one of the ports mentioned in paragraph (a) hereof: 12s. 8d. each, increased by the appropriate proportion of the freight charges incurred by the retailer in obtaining delivery from such one of the said ports as is most convenient of access to his store:

Provided that, where any woolpacks to which this paragraph applies are obtained by the retailer elsewhere than from such one of the said ports as is most convenient of access to his store, the increase authorised by this paragraph shall not exceed the appropriate proportion of the freight charges that would have been incurred by the retailer if the woolpacks had been obtained from that port and if delivery had been effected at current freight rates.

(2) The maximum prices fixed by the last preceding sub-clause are fixed as for delivery f.o.r. or f.o.b. as the case may require.

(3) Where any woolpacks are delivered by a retailer otherwise than f.o.r. or f.o.b., the price that may by charged by the retailer shall be the appropriate price in terms of the foregoing provisions of this clause increased by the amount of the freight charges incurred by him in effecting delivery and then reduced by the amount of those charges that would have been incurred by him if he had delivered the woolpacks f.o.r. or f.o.b. as aforesaid.

(4) Any freight charges imposed by a retailer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this clause shall be shown separately on the appropriate invoice.

5. 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 retailer, may authorise special maximum retail prices in respect of any woolpacks to which this order applies where special circumstances exist, or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or otherwise) are incurred by the retailer. Any authority given by the Tribunal under this clause may apply with respect to a specified lot or consignment of woolpacks or may relate generally to all woolpacks to which this order applies sold by the retailer while the approval remains in force.

Dated at Wellington this 17th day of August 1960.
