Electrical Wiring Regulations 1961—Electrical Apparatus
Which May Constitute an Electrical Hazard

Pursuant to regulation 8 of the Electrical Wiring Regulations
1961, notice is hereby given that:

1. The appliance described below may in my opinion,
   constitute an electrical hazard.

Description: Electrically-operated hair clipper model KT,
fitted with 3-core flexible cord and 3-pin flat-pin plug.
Trade Name: K.S.
Manufacturer: Kato Electric Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan.

2. The possible electrical hazard arises from—
   (a) The omission of an earth connection to an exposed
   metal cover plate. Such earthing is considered to be a
   necessary safety precaution to prevent the plate
   becoming live.
   (b) The earth-continuity conductor of the flexible cord is
   not identifiable by the colour green or green and
   yellow combination in accordance with regulation
   61 of the Electrical Wiring Regulations 1961.
   (c) The plug fitted to the appliance is similar in construction
   to two-piece rubber and thermoplastic plugs
   prohibited from use in New Zealand. The cover is
   considered likely to slip off accidentally and thus
   expose live terminals.

3. Every person who sells or offers for sale any apparatus
   which in the opinion of the General Manager of the New
   Zealand Electricity Department constitutes or may constitute
   an electrical hazard commits an offence and shall be liable
   on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding £20.

4. All persons who have purchased a K.S. electrically-operated hair clipper as described above are advised to refrain
   from using same until all the possible electrical hazards
   referred to have been removed.

Dated at Wellington this 4th day of March 1966.
E. B. MacKENZIE,
General Manager, New Zealand Electricity Department.

The Land and Income Tax Act 1954: Interest on Income Tax
Paid in Advance

Pursuant to section 207 of the Land and Income Tax Act
1954 as amended by section 89 (c) of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1957, the Minister of Finance has prescribed
that interest at 4 per cent per annum will be credited on
advance payments of income tax made by a taxpayer, being
a subsisting company* or a public authority (other than
either of them in the capacity of a trustee or agent) or a
Maori authority, on account of income tax becoming payable
during the financial year ending 31 March 1967, provided
the total interest so calculated amounts to 5s. or more.

Advance payments carry interest for each complete month
commencing from 7 March 1966 or the date of payment
(whichever is the later) to 6 February 1967 inclusive.

Dated at Wellington this 8th day of March 1966.
L. J. RATHGEN, Commissioner of Inland Revenue.

*"Subsisting company" means a company which was incorporated before the 26th day of July 1957, but does not include
a company which, by virtue of an election under section 42
of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1957, has become a provisional taxpayer.
