Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This Act imposes the levy described in the Agricultural and Veterinary Chemical Products (Collection of Levy) Act 1994, but only to the extent the levy is not a customs or excise duty. It also excludes property owned by a State.

The practical effect is to create a statutory charge payable by persons liable under the separate Collection Act, raising costs for affected manufacturers, importers and suppliers; the Collection Act sets out who pays, how it is collected and compliance obligations.
