With it, they pay less (or nothing), making the imported cork cheaper for Australian businesses to buy. This helps local manufacturers who rely on these materials stay competitive.\n\n**The legal bits explained:**\n- Made under **Section 269P of the Customs Act 1901** — this is the law that lets the government create these concession orders\n- References **Part III of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995** — this is where the actual duty rates are listed; the order links these specific cork products to a concessional item number in that schedule\n- Can be revoked under **sections 269SC or 269SD** — these are the legal provisions that allow the government to cancel the concession if circumstances change (e.g., if local industry starts making the product)"},"flash_summary_failed":{"failed":true,"reason":"Unauthenticated.
