Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

The provided text appears to be an incomplete fragment of the 1936 Customs (Prohibited Imports) Regulations. It contains only the formal machinery provisions: it repeals the previous regulations (Statutory Rules 1936, No. 92) and sets a commencement date of 1 January 1937. However, it omits the substantive content—the schedules that would list which specific goods are prohibited from importation (such as drugs, weapons, or objectionable materials). Without these schedules, the actual legal prohibitions cannot be identified or explained.
