An Act to make Provision for Customs Reciprocity between New Zealand and South Africa.

Preamble.

WHEREAS negotiations for a reciprocal Customs treaty with South Africa are in progress, and it is expedient provision should be made to enable such treaty to be brought into operation before the next session of Parliament:

Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—

1 Short Title.

The Short Title of this Act is “The New Zealand and South African Customs Duties Reciprocity Act, 1906.”

2 Reciprocal treaty with South Africa, if made, may be given effect to.

In the event of a reciprocal Customs treaty being arranged between New Zealand and South Africa before the commencement of the next session of Parliament, the Governor may cause the same to be gazetted, and may, by Order in Council gazetted, make such alterations in the existing New Zealand tariff as in his opinion are necessary in order to give full effect to such treaty.

3 When altered duties to come into force.

On and after a date to be named in such Order in Council the respective duties and exemptions specified therein shall come into operation according to the tenor of the Order in Council as fully and effectually as if the same were specifically authorised by this Act, and all Acts relating to the Customs shall operate and be construed accordingly.

4 When Act to cease to be in operation.

This Act and the aforesaid Order in Council shall continue in operation until the close of the twenty-first day after the commencement of the next session of Parliament, and shall then be deemed to be repealed; and thereupon the duties and exemptions in force immediately prior to the coming into operation of the said Order in Council shall revive in like manner as if this Act had not been passed.
