Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This ministerial permission lets Mitsubishi Motors Australia Ltd access ACIS car‑industry subsidies despite not meeting the usual registration criteria, because the Minister found it in the national interest. It temporarily waives specified eligibility rules so Mitsubishi can continue receiving assistance while restructuring.

Conditions require Mitsubishi to deliver a new passenger‑car model by 31 Dec 2006, submit to annual departmental reviews until production targets are met, and ultimately manufacture at least 30,000 vehicles or engines per ACIS year.
