Provided that, where any woolpacks to which this paragraph applies are obtained by the retailer elsewhere than from such one of the said ports as is most convenient of access to his store, the increase authorised by this paragraph shall not exceed the appropriate proportion of the freight charges that would have been incurred by the retailer, if the woolpacks had been obtained from that port and if delivery had been effected at current freight rates.

Any authority given by the Secretary under this clause may apply with respect to a specified lot or consignment of woolpacks or may relate generally to all woolpacks to which this order applies sold by the retailer while the approval remains in force.
