No. 101

The books are gross attempts to exploit debased interest in sexual behaviour.

The Tribunal classifies these two books as indecent.

Women and Their Boys

As well as the usual recital of sexual exploits with some trivial commentary this book of case histories has a section of advertisements for other texts from the same publisher which emphasise the blatantly pornographic nature of the publication. It is particularly coarse in its language and altogether indecent.

The Tribunal classifies this book as indecent.

Poultry Entitlement Levy—Determination of Nature and Incidence (No. 590 Ag. 20210)

PURSUANT to regulation 75B of the Egg Marketing Authority Regulations 1953, as added by regulation 15 of the Egg Marketing Authority Regulations 1953, Amendment No. 11, the Egg Marketing Authority gives notice of the nature and incidence of the entitlement levy which it has determined, as follows:

Assessment of levy—

(a) A fixed levy of 30c per annum in respect of each laying bird authorised to be kept pursuant to an entitlement licence during the year ended on 30 June 1973 and during each succeeding year; provided that in respect of each laying bird authorised to be kept for any period of less than any such year the levy shall be reduced in proportion to that period.

(b) A variable levy, commencing on 30 October 1972, in respect of each laying bird authorised to be kept pursuant to an entitlement licence during any statistical period when levies on eggs (“floor downpayments”), approved under regulation 65 (2) of the Egg Marketing Authority Regulations 1953, are being deducted from the proceeds of eggs consigned to licensed distributors for sale; the rate of variable levy for any statistical period being 15 times the rate of “floor downpayment” per dozen eggs for that period divided by 12; for this purpose “statistical period” means any one of 12 periods, each of either 4 or 5 weeks, into which each year is divided by the Authority for statistical and accounting purposes; provided that in respect of each laying bird authorised to be kept during part of any statistical period the rate of variable levy shall be reduced in proportion to that part.

(c) The fixed levy (a) and the variable levy (b) shall both apply in respect of 80 percent only of the maximum number of laying birds which any person is authorised by an entitlement licence to keep during the periods in respect of which the levies are payable.

(d) Levies assessed and payable under (a), (b), and (c) in relation to each laying bird authorised to be kept during the year ended 30 June 1973 shall not exceed 52.56c.

(e) The manner of assessing levies payable set out in (a), (b), and (c) above shall have continuing effect until any variation thereof shall have been determined and approved in the manner prescribed by regulation 75B (2), provided that the total amount of fixed and variable levies imposed in any year ending on 30 June shall not exceed $1 in relation to each bird authorised to be kept under an entitlement licence.

Payment of Levy—

(f) Levies assessed and payable as above shall be debited in the books of the Authority to the accounts of the entitlement holders concerned.

(g) Debits for the fixed levy charged to each account during the 2 years ending 30 June 1974 shall be totalled; amounts of chick levy charged to the entitlement holder concerned, pursuant to regulation 16 of the Egg Marketing Authority Regulations 1953, for the same period shall also be totalled, and if the total charged for chick levy equals or exceeds the total charged for fixed levy no fixed levy shall be due; the amount by which the total of fixed levy exceeds the total of chick levy shall be paid to the Authority by the entitlement holder not later than 30 September 1974; the same procedure shall apply in respect of the 2 years ending 30 June in 1976 and every second year thereafter; provided that on the revocation of an entitlement licence any balance of fixed levy payable by the holder shall be determined as at the date of revocation in accordance with the above procedure and such balance shall be paid to the Authority not later than 3 months thereafter.

(h) Debits for the variable levy charged to each account during the period from 30 October 1972 to 30 June 1973 shall be totalled; amounts of “floor downpayments” deducted from the proceeds of eggs consigned during that period by the entitlement holder concerned to a licensed distributor for sale shall also be totalled, and if the total of such “floor downpayments” equals or exceeds the total charged for variable levy no variable levy shall be due; the amount by which the total of variable levy exceeds the total of “floor downpayments” shall be paid to the Authority by the entitlement holder not later than 30 November 1973; the same procedure shall apply in respect of the year ending 30 June in 1974 and every year thereafter, except that the balance of variable levy due at 30 June shall be paid to the Authority not later than 30 September next following; provided that on the revocation of an entitlement licence any balance of variable levy payable by the holder shall be determined as at the date of the revocation in accordance with the above procedure and such balance shall be paid to the Authority not later than 3 months thereafter.
