No. 70

Tariff and Development Board Notice No. 137—New Zealand - Australia Free Trade Agreement—Elimination of Margins

In an exchange of letters associated with the New Zealand - Australia Free Trade Agreement, the New Zealand Government expressed the intention of eliminating the margins by which the rates of duty applicable to certain goods imported from Australia exceed those applicable to goods imported under the same Tariff item from other countries.
The Minister of Overseas Trade has requested the Tariff and Development Board to make recommendations from time to time on the progressive implementation of this policy and, in this regard, the Board now intends to consider the goods listed in the following Schedule.
If no representations are received to the contrary the Board proposes to recommend that, in respect of these goods, the rates of duty applicable to imports from Australia be reduced to the level of the present British Preferential Tariff rates or of such lower rates as are indicated in the notes to the Schedule. Any person or firm desiring to make representations regarding an item or items should send to the undernamed, not later than Friday, 27 February 1970, 12 copies in the form in which it would be intended to submit them as evidence under oath at a public inquiry, and the “Notes for Guidance of Witnesses”, prepared by the Board, may be found of assistance. Copies of these notes may be obtained from the under-named.
If public inquiries are found to be necessary in respect of any item or items, notice to this effect will be given.

Dated at Wellington this 28th day of October 1969.

O. A. BLACK, Secretary, Tariff and Development Board.

P.O. Box 5070, Wellington.
