Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order gives a tariff concession (a customs duty reduction or exemption) for specific industrial fish-processing machinery.

What it covers:

Goods: Sawing lines for frozen fish blocks, including log saws, plank saws, and portion saws
Classification: Customs tariff code 8438.80.00
Concession: Item 50 of Part III of Schedule 4 to the Customs Tariff Act 1995

What this means: Businesses importing this specific equipment for cutting frozen fish blocks pay reduced or zero customs duties. The order took effect on 20 February 2006 and continues until revoked.

Why it matters: Tariff concessions are typically granted when Australia doesn't manufacture equivalent goods locally. This helps fishing and food processing industries import necessary machinery without paying full import taxes.
