Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This regulation amends dairy levy rules to reflect an updated statute citation, extend existing butter levies to include butter powder, and introduce new levies on butteroil and ghee (5/64d per lb for one purpose and 5/32d per lb for another). It affects dairy producers and processors, ensuring processed dairy fats contribute to industry levies that fund research and marketing and preventing avoidance via product processing.
