Deer Industry New Zealand Levy Rates

1. Deer Industry New Zealand (DINZ) is a marketing authority established by Regulation 4 of the Deer Industry New Zealand Regulations 2004.

2. DINZ levy

2.1 Under Regulation 18(1) of the Deer Industry New Zealand Regulations 2004, DINZ fixes the rates of DINZ levy (which levy rates are exclusive of goods and services tax imposed by the Goods and Services Tax Act 1985) as follows:

(a) On venison derived from deer, other than fallow deer, slaughtered in deer slaughtering premises, on the basis of hot clean carcass weight after removal of condemned parts:

19 cents (nineteen cents) per kilogram.

(b) On venison derived from each fallow deer slaughtered in deer slaughtering premises, on the basis of hot clean carcass weight after removal of condemned parts:

12 cents (twelve cents) per kilogram.

(c) On velvet from deer other than fallow deer received at a packing house for processing or packing, on a frozen weight basis:

325 cents (three hundred and twenty-five cents) per kilogram.

(d) On velvet from fallow deer received at a packing house for processing or packing, on a frozen weight basis:

90 cents (ninety cents) per kilogram.

2.2 For the purpose of paragraphs 2.1 (a) and 2.1 (b) above, hot clean carcass weight is defined in the DeerQA Venison Processors Industry Agreed Standards (dated 21 July 2003) at Standard IAS-3: Venison Standard Carcass. This document is available on request from Deer Industry New Zealand by telephone (04) 473 4500 or mail PO Box 10702, Wellington.

2.3 The levy rates described in paragraphs 2.1 (a) and 2.1 (b) above are payable by the owner at the time of slaughter. However, where the venison is sold at the time of slaughter to a venison processor or venison marketer (as defined in Regulation 3 of the DINZ Regulations 2004):

(a) the portion of the levy on such venison that is allocated to the Animal Health Board (as described in paragraph 9.2 below) shall remain payable by the owner at the time of slaughter;

(b) the remainder of the levy payable on such venison shall be payable in equal shares by the owner at the time of slaughter and the venison processor or venison marketer.

2.4 No levy is payable on velvet when the value of the applicable velvet grade, as defined by the Industry Agreed Grading Guidelines, is less than or equal to $15.00/kg (GST exclusive).

2.5 If the deer slaughtering premises (DSP) or packing house (PH) (formerly game packing house) fails to keep accurate records relating to the DINZ levy or to file accurate returns relating to the DINZ levy, then the levy payable will be assessed by DINZ with reference to such information as DINZ considers fit.

3. DSPs are not required to collect levies on Tb reactors but will be required to report the number of reactor deer slaughtered to DINZ in their monthly returns. The levy will be waived for those Tb reactors which are identified with an official reactor tag and where they
