Price Order No. 2070 (Australian Oranges)
PURSUANT to the Control of Prices Act 1947, I, Geoffrey
Harold Datson, pursuant to a delegation from the Secretary of
Industries and Commerce acting under a delegation from the
Price Tribunal, hereby make the following price order:

1. This order may be cited as Price Order No. 2070, and
   shall come into force on the 19th day of January 1968.
2. (1) Price Order No. 2034* 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.
3. References in this order to metropolitan areas are
   references to the metropolitan areas described in the Schedule
   hereto.
   APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER
4. This order applies with respect to all Australian oranges
   sold by way of retail in New Zealand.
   MAXIMUM RETAIL PRICES
5. (1) Where, in this price order, prices are expressed both
   in decimal currency and in existing currency, the prices
   expressed in decimal currency shall be the prices applicable
   unless, because of difficulties relating to machine conversion,
   a trader continues to deal during the transitional period exclu-
   sively or principally in existing currency, in which case the
   prices applicable shall be those expressed in existing currency.
   (2) In this clause the terms “decimal currency”, “existing
   currency”, and “transitional period” shall have the same mean-
   ing as in the Decimal Currency Act 1964.
6. (1) Subject to the provisions of this clause, the maximum
   price that may be charged or received by any retailer for any
   Australian oranges shall be—
   (a) When sold by a retailer carrying on business in any of
   the metropolitan areas of Auckland, Wellington,
   Christchurch, or Dunedin, or in any of the Cities
   or Boroughs of Whangarei, Takapuna, Hamilton,
   Tauranga, Rotorua, Gisborne, New Plymouth, Strat-
   ford, Hawera, Wanganui, Palmerston North, Napier,
   Hastings, Blenheim, Nelson, Greymouth, Timaru,
   Westport, Oamaru, Balclutha, Gore, or Invercargill—
   16 cents (1s. 7d.) per pound.
   (b) When sold by a retailer carrying on business elsewhere—
   1s. 7½d. per pound, or
   1 lb, 17 cents;
   2 lb, 33 cents;
   3 lb, 50 cents;
   4 lb, 66 cents;
   Fractions of a pound shall be calculated at 17 cents per
   pound. Quantities in excess of 4 lb shall be calculated at the
   rate of 16½ cents per pound.
   (2) If in respect of any lot of oranges sold by a retailer
   the maximum price calculated in accordance with the fore-
   going provisions of this clause is not an exact number of
   cents, pence or half-pence, the maximum price of the lot may
   be computed to the nearest whole cent, or the next upward
   half-penny.
   SPECIAL PRICES WHERE EXTRAORDINARY CHARGES INCURRED
7. Subject to such conditions, if any, as it thinks fit, the
   Tribunal, on application by any retailer, may authorise
   special prices in respect of any Australian oranges 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 oranges or may relate generally to all
   Australian oranges to which this order applies sold by the
   retailer while the approval remains in force.
   DUTY IMPOSED ON RETAILERS
8. Every retailer who offers or exposes any Australian
   oranges for sale in any shop shall keep in a prominent position
   in such proximity to the oranges to which it relates as to
   be obviously descriptive thereof, a ticket, placard, or label on
   which shall be stated in legible and prominent characters the
   following particulars:
   (a) The retail price per pound of the oranges. Retailers to
   whom clause 6 (b) of this order applies shall state at least
   the prices for 1 lb and 2 lb lots.
   (b) The word “Australian”.
