3. Butter shall be packed in boxes each containing a net weight of 56 lb 2 oz of actual butter, excluding wrapping paper.

4. In computing the weight of butter for which payment is to be made by the Board the weight of all butter comprised in any consignment submitted for grading under the said regulations shall be ascertained as follows:

(a) Each box of butter containing a net weight of 56 lb 2 oz of actual butter, excluding wrapping paper, shall, subject as hereinafter provided, be computed at 56 lb.

(b) The weight of all butter in any such consignment shall be determined on the basis of the weight as ascertained by the grader of the several boxes selected by him for weighing and set out in the Grader’s Certificate issued in respect of that consignment, and the boxes of butter so weighed shall be taken as fixing the average weight for the whole quantity of butter comprised in such certificate, overweights being averaged with underweights in each such certificate in relation to the prescribed weight of 56 lb 2 oz per box:

(c) If the average weight ascertained as aforesaid of the butter comprised in any Grader’s Certificate be less than 56 lb 2 oz per box, such deficiency shall be deducted from a weight of 56 lb per box for the purpose of computing payment therefor:

(d) If the average weight ascertained as aforesaid of the butter comprised in any Grader’s Certificate exceeds the prescribed weight of 56 lb 2 oz per box, then the amount of such excess shall not be taken into account for the purpose of computing payment therefor.

5. The prices fixed by the Authority shall not be paid for any butter manufactured otherwise than in compliance with the said regulations.

6. The price to be paid by the Board for any butter which, with the approval or at the request of the Board, is manufactured, prepared, or packed in special containers, or in special quantities, or otherwise in any special manner, shall be the appropriate price payable for that butter as hereinbefore provided adjusted by such appropriate addition or reduction as corresponds with the additional costs or the reduced costs incurred in such special manufacture, preparation, or packing. Any such approval or request of the Board may include a stipulation limiting the additional cost to be incurred and may dispense with the requirements of paragraphs 3 and 4 hereof, and, in that event, payment shall be made for the actual net weight of the butter exported. The adjustment to prices referred to in this paragraph shall be computed by the Board and the computation of the Board shall be final.

Dated at Wellington this 30th day of June 1967.
