Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (National Residue Survey - Cattle Transactions) Regulations

Section 13 of the National Residue Survey Administration Act 1992 (the Act) provides that the Governor-General may make regulations, not inconsistent with the Act, prescribing all matters required or permitted by the Act to be prescribed, or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for the purposes of carrying out or giving effect to the Act.

Section 30 of the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection Act 1991 (the Collection Act) provides that the Governor-General may make regulations, not inconsistent with the Act, prescribing all matters required or permitted by the Act to be prescribed, or necessary or convenient to be prescribed for the purposes of carrying out or giving effect to the Collection Act, in particular the making of provisions in relation to the payment of levy or amounts on account of levy and other amounts payable to the Commonwealth.

The purpose of the proposed regulations is to provide the appropriate administrative measures under which the Primary Industries Levies and Charges Collection (National Residue Survey-Cattle Transactions) Regulations will operate from 1 July 1993.

Previous arrangements for the National Residue Survey levy on cattle were made under the Cattle Transaction Levy Act 1990. From 1 July 1993 legislative provisions bring the National Residue Survey levy for cattle under the above Acts. The transitional arrangements for transactions prior to 1 July 1993, but not finalised, are provided for in the National Residue Survey (Consequential Provisions) Act 1992.

The National Residue Survey (Cattle Transactions) Levy Act 1992 imposes the National Residue Survey levy.
