This concession reduces the cost of importing critical components, supporting Australian scientific research and competitiveness. Without it, these parts would attract standard import duties, making Australian research more expensive."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0507063/documents"}}
