Explanatory note
This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.
These regulations, which come into force on the day after the date of their notification in the Gazette, change the formula in regulation 5 of the Energy (Petrol, Engine Fuel, and Gas) Levy Regulations 2017 (the principal regulations) for calculating the rate of the petroleum or engine fuel monitoring levy (regulation 4). The change increases the levy by 0.3 cents per litre of petroleum or fuel.
The Schedule amends Schedule 1 of the principal regulations to provide that the increase will apply for the levy period beginning on 1 July 2019 and for subsequent levy periods.
These regulations are a confirmable instrument under section 47B of the Legislation Act 2012. They are revoked at the close of 30 June 2020, unless earlier confirmed by an Act of Parliament. That stated time is the applicable deadline under section 47C(1)(a) of that Act.
