Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This order removes a tax break (tariff concession) for importing a specific agricultural chemical called paraquat dichloride.

What it does:

Revokes (cancels) a previous order that allowed this chemical to enter Australia without paying customs duty
The revocation takes effect from 9 July 2007

Who it affects:

Importers of paraquat dichloride (a herbicide/weed killer used in farming)
From the effective date, importers must now pay standard import duties on this product

Why it matters: This increases the cost of importing this particular chemical, likely for reasons related to local industry protection, health/safety concerns (note it mentions the product contains an emetic to induce vomiting if accidentally swallowed), or changes in domestic manufacturing capability.
