It stops the government from collecting a specific charge on meat exported from Australia.\n\n**What it means:**\n- **Repeal:** The previous laws that charged fees on exported meat are abolished.\n- **Grandfathering protection:** If you exported meat *before* this Act started, the old rules (and any regulations) still apply to you. This ensures you don't face unexpected new charges for past transactions.\n- **Connection to new system:** The Act starts on the same date as the Live-stock Slaughter Levy Act 1964, indicating it was part of switching from export charges to slaughter levies for funding industry services."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964","history":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964/history","analysis":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/meat-export-charge-repeal-act-1964/documents"}}
