PURSUANT to the Control of Prices Act 1947, the Price Tribunal hereby makes the following price order:

PRELIMINARY

  2. (1) Price Order No. 2080* shall be revoked on the coming into force of this order.

(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) Notwithstanding the revocation of Price Order No. 2080:
(i) any approvals given under clause 10 of that price order shall continue to have effect as if the said order had not been revoked.
(ii) the provisions of Price Order No. 2061 (Bread—Recovery of Extraordinary Charges) shall continue to have effect as if Price Order No. 2080 had not been revoked.

APPLICATION OF THIS ORDER

  1. This order applies to all bread referred to in clauses 4, 5, and 6 of this order sold in New Zealand by a wholesaler or by a retailer, but does not apply to bread sold on Stewart Island or to bread sold as part of a meal.

FIXING MAXIMUM WHOLESALE AND RETAIL PRICES OF BREAD TO WHICH THIS ORDER APPLIES

(a) Standard white bread.
(b) Standard brown bread.

(e) Wheat-germ bread.

  1. Subject to the provisions of this order, the prices set out in the Third and Fourth Schedules to this order shall be the maximum prices which may be charged or received for any bread to which this order applies and which is customarily known as starch reduced bread, that is, bread in the making of which there is for each sack of flour (160 lb) used not less than 6 lb of dry gluten, or 18 lb of wet gluten, and no less than 6 lb of fat with either dried milk or condensed milk.

  3. The wholesale prices fixed by this order apply to bread delivered to the retailer’s premises. In any case where bread is not so delivered the prices shall be such as are agreed upon between the baker and the retailer, or failing such agreement, as may be approved by the Tribunal.

GENERAL

  1. A booking fee at the rate of one quarter cent (¼c) per loaf for loaves of not more than 1 lb weight and one half cent (½c) per loaf for loaves exceeding 1 lb weight may be made for any bread sold by a retailer to which this order applies, provided that payment for the bread so sold has not been made prior to, or at the time of, the customer’s taking delivery of the bread at the shop.

  2. The maximum retail selling prices provided for in this order shall include the service of wrapping where this service is provided by the retailer.

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 wholesaler, or retailer, may authorise special maximum prices in respect of any bread to which this order applies where special circumstances exist or for any reason extraordinary charges (freight or otherwise) are incurred by the wholesaler or retailer.
