Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

What this does: These regulations set the beef production levy at $0.0054 (just over half a cent). This is a mandatory fee that beef producers pay on the cattle or meat they produce.

Who it affects: Cattle farmers and beef producers who are required to pay levies under the Beef Production Levy Act 1990.

Why it matters: This small charge funds research and development for the meat industry. The money is collected for the Australian Meat and Live-stock Research and Development Corporation, and the rate reflects what the industry body recommended to the government.
