This order has been in effect since **15 October 2004** and continues until revoked or replaced.\n\nThe order was made under the **Customs Act 1901** by a delegate of the Australian Customs Service (now the Australian Border Force)."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0410861/documents"}}
