It declares that certain imported goods listed in the Table are covered by the tariff item listed in Part III of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995.  In plain terms, it assigns a specific tariff concession treatment to those goods from the effective date stated (11 August 2005) and keeps that treatment in place until the Order is revoked under the cited revocation provisions or a date shown in the Table.\n\n**Which goods are covered**\n\n- The Table lists one Customs Tariff classification: 8417.90.00.  The goods described are \"PARTS, WALKING BEAM FURNACE,\" specifically any of the following: (a) roof hangers; (b) charging and discharging door protectors; (c) supports; (d) venturis; (e) ladders.  The Table links these goods to Schedule 4 Item Number 50.\n\n**Who is affected**\n\n- Importers and suppliers of the listed walking-beam furnace parts (they receive the tariff concession).\n- Customs officers and brokerages (they must apply the concession correctly at import clearance).\n- The Commonwealth (because concessional treatment can reduce import duty revenue compared with standard tariff rates).\n\n**How it matters (mechanics and consequences)**\n\n- The Order does not change primary legislation; it exercises a statutory power to grant concessional tariff treatment to a narrowly described set of goods (see s269P authority and the Table entry).\n- Practically, covered import consignments may attract the Schedule 4 tariff treatment instead of the ordinary tariff for 8417.90.00, from 11 August 2005 until the Order is revoked.  That typically means lower or zero duty under the relevant Schedule 4 item, depending on the Schedule’s content.\n- The benefit is concentrated: it goes to entities importing those specific furnace parts. The fiscal cost (lost or reduced tariff revenue) is borne by the Commonwealth’s budget.\n\n**Implementation, compliance and risk notes**\n\n- Correct application depends on accurate description and classification at import.  If importers misdeclare goods or if the goods do not match the Table description, customs can challenge the concession.\n- The Order is open-ended in duration; it remains effective until revoked under sections 269SC or 269SD of the Customs Act 1901 (these are the statutory mechanisms for review/revocation).  That creates ongoing administrative exposure: Customs may later cancel the concession if circumstances warrant.\n- The Order is narrow in scope (specific parts listed). That reduces complexity for customs processing but concentrates the economic benefit to a small group of importers.\n\n**Official purpose claim and a brief test against trade-offs**\n\n- The instrument’s stated effect is to make the listed goods fall under the Schedule 4 concession (Table entry).  The likely intended policy effect (not stated in the Order itself) is to lower import costs for users of these parts.  The trade-off is a predictable reduction in customs revenue in return for lower input costs to the affected businesses.  Implementation risks are the usual ones for concessional orders: misclassification, later revocation, and administrative processing by customs.\n\n(Authority cited in the Order: s269P Customs Act 1901; revocation mechanisms: ss 269SC, 269SD Customs Act 1901; tariff reference: Part III of Schedule 4, Customs Tariff Act 1995.)"}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591","history":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tariff-concession-order-0510591/documents"}}
